Abrego-Garcia in police custody after talking at the rally

Baltimore, md. – Salvadoral migrants Kilmar Abrego Garcia were arrested on Monday morning by immigration and customs officials after arriving for registration at the agency’s campaign office in Baltimore, Maryland, where managers are planning to start removing the procedure to deport it in a third country, such as Uganda.

Addressing journalists outside the Baltimore ice field office after the detention of Abrego Garcia, his lawyer, Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg, said that ice officials refused to tell them where they held Abrego Garcia before his withdrawal, or told them why they would stop him.

“Since the last five minutes, Mr. Abrego Garcia has filed a new legal action before the Federal District Court for the Maryland district to challenge his confinement and challenge his expulsion to Uganda, or in any other country unless he had a fair trial – as in an immigration court, as well as his full recourse rights,” Sandoval -Moshenberg Sad.

The request in Habeas, filed with the Maryland American district court, was assigned to the American judge Dsict Paula Xinis, who has chaired his civil affair since March.

Abrego Garcia’s legal struggle for months dominated the American titles, after being expelled by the Trump administration in Salvador in violation of an order from the 2019 court. He faces a second possible expulsion, this time in Uganda.

Shortly before his arrival on Monday morning, immigration defenders, religious leaders and other members of the community set up in front of the Sunrise campaign office for a vigil, organized by two advocacy groups in matters of immigration.

The Trump administration returned it to the United States for months after sending it to Salvador, under the orders of a federal judge and the Supreme Court.

He was arrested after return to the United States for accusations of human smuggling resulting from a traffic stop in 2022 in Tenneee. He stayed in federal detention until Friday, when he was released from custody of the United States and ordered to return to Maryland, where a judge said that he could remain under electronic surveillance and the surveillance of ice pending trial.

ICE officials informed Abrego Garcia’s lawyers shortly after his release on Friday that they planned to deport him to Uganda, an East African Nation who concluded an agreement with the United States last week to accept migrants expelled by the Trump administration.

The opinion, sent by the office of the main legal adviser of the ICE, said that it was intended to “serve as an opinion that the DHS could withdraw your client, Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, in Uganda as soon as possible in 72 hours (absent weekends).”

Sunday evening, the Trump Tom Homan border Czar told Fox News in an interview that Garcia Garcia was going to “absolutely” be expelled from the United States, and said that Uganda was “on the table” as a third party country.

“We have an agreement with them. It is on a table, absolutely,” said Homan in an interview on “The Big Weekend Show” on Sunday evening.

“He will absolutely be expelled,” reiterated Homan.

For the moment, he said, Abrego Garcia “can enjoy the short time he has with his family. And for the person who says that we are not going to separate the family, his family can go with him, because he leaves.”
