U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen traveled to El Salvador to advocate for the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran man mistakenly deported by the Trump administration despite a court order protecting him. El Salvador’s Vice President denied Van Hollen access to Garcia and claimed the U.S. was paying for his imprisonment. Although the U.S. Supreme Court ordered his return, Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele refused to release him. The DHS claims it lacks the authority to bring him back. Garcia, who fled gang violence as a teen and has no criminal record, is accused by Trump officials of MS-13 ties—allegations his lawyers dispute. He is being held without access to legal counsel or communication. Democrats argue the case illustrates Trump’s disregard for legal protections and are pushing for further investigation. Meanwhile, El Salvador has accepted hundreds of other deportees under similar circumstances and imprisoned them without trial. #senatorvanhollen #wronglydeportation #elSalvador #immigrationjustice #deportationcase #humanrights #immigrationreform #vanhollen #vpmeeting #justiceforimmigrants #uspolitics #immigrationnews #bringhimhome #asylumrights #immigrationcrisis #deportationjustice #savethesalvadoranman #familiesbelongtogether #immigrantadvocacy #policychange Moneycontrol is India’s leading financial portal, offering market news, expert analysis, and powerful tools.
