Abrego Garcia: Who is he? Why was He deported from us? Will Trump bring him back? What we know so far | Today news

The ‘unlawful’ deportation of Salvadoran Kilmar Abrego Garcia from the US is in question. Will he return to the US? Will US President Trump approve until his return? Can he be brought back? Here’s all you need to know: Who is Abrego Garcia? Abrego Garcia is a Salvadoran man deported from the US without the necessary process by the Trump administration, Reuters reported. He was sent to the Terrorism Collection Center (Cecot), a maximum security prison in El Salvador, at Dulles International Airport in Sterling, Virginia, USA. Abrego Garcia, 29, lived in the United States for about 14 years, during which he worked in construction, married and raised three children with disabilities, according to court documents reported by the Associat Press news agency. Abrego Garcia is allegedly a Salvadoran migrant. According to AP, he entered the US illegally in 2011, but in 2019 received an indefinite postponement of deportation. According to documents submitted to a US immigration law in 2019, Abrego Garcia was born in El Salvador in 1995 to a policeman and a mother who sold maize grille cakes, known as pupusas. He was one of the many deported. The Trump administration paid Bukele’s administration a few million dollars to remain in custody. He lived with his wife and three children in Maryland. Why was Abrego Garcia deported from the US? The Trump administration allegedly deported Abrego Garcia to El Salvador in March this year. He was arrested before his five -year -old son when they left a store in Maryland. Three days later, he ended up in El Salvador with 238 Venezolese and 22 fellow Salvadorans who deported a few hours after Trump rarely used a rarely used war authority. US officials later described the error as “an administrative error”. The US government argues that Abrego Garcia is a member of the notorious MS-13 Salvadoran gang, although the evidence it provided by a federal court was dismissed as insufficient. Meanwhile, Garcia denies gang membership and has never been charged with a crime in any country. His attorneys pointed out that the criminal informant claimed to be a member of MS-13 in Long Island, New York, where he had never lived. What is MS-13 gang? The La Mara Salvatrucha gang is better known as MS-13. It is said to be a national and trans-national gang with more than 10,000 members in the United States and thousands more in Central America and Mexico. MS-13, originally founded in Los Angeles by immigrants in Salvadoran in the 1980s, has long been considered one of the most violent gangs operating in the United States, reports the news agency Ani. The gang is known for the use of intimidation and violence, including murder, and is engaged in criminal activities such as housebreaking and drug trafficking, the report states. Will Donald Trump bring him back? US President Donald Trump recently said he will have no personal objection to the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the US for legal action. However, he insisted that the decision rested with his attorneys. “If he brings him back and tries him again, it won’t bother me, but I leave it to my lawyer,” Trump told Time Magazine in an interview. Trump insisted whether he personally asked Salvadoran President to release Abrego Garcia, and Trump admitted he didn’t do it: “I didn’t, he said he wouldn’t.” According to CBS News, Trump administration officials argued that their Abrego Garcia could not return to the US because it was to Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele to decide whether to return him. However, at a meeting of the White House earlier this month, Bukele claimed that he did not “have the power” to return him on his own. “How can I return him to the United States?” Bukele was quoted by CBS News. “I smuggle him to the United States or what do I do? Of course I’m not going to do it. The question is ominous,” he added. Bukele further referred to Abrego Garcia as a ‘terrorist’ and said, ‘I do not have the power to return him to the United States.’ Can Abrego Garcia be brought back to the US at all? Tom Homan, the Trump administration border, reiterated last week’s position of the administration that Abrego Garcia would be arrested and deported again if he were returned to the US. Meanwhile, Withuis press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a press briefing earlier: ‘If he [Ábrego García] Ever ends up again in the United States, he would be deported again immediately. He will never live in the United States of America. ‘First Published: 29 Apr 2025, 11:14 am Ist
