The Trump administration filed a document stating that Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man mistakenly deported to El Salvador, is alive and being held in a detention center there. The filing was made in response to a court order demanding daily updates on Abrego Garcia’s status and efforts to bring him back to the U.S. Abrego Garcia’s lawyers quoted President Trump, who indicated the U.S. could facilitate his return. However, Trump later appeared to backtrack on this statement, emphasizing cooperation with El Salvador on security issues. The lawyers are seeking court orders to ensure compliance with the injunction to bring Abrego Garcia back. The Supreme Court had previously ruled in favor of facilitating his release. Abrego Garcia was sent to El Salvador by mistake, with the government alleging he is a member of MS-13. Despite being a legal resident protected from deportation, he was sent to a Salvadoran prison along with alleged gang members. The government has admitted the error and is facing scrutiny for its handling of the situation. This latest filing confirms that Abrego Garcia is still alive while plans are made to bring him back to the U.S. A hearing is scheduled to review progress in resolving the issue.
