Legal challenges arose, highlighting issues of due process. Additionally, the financial motivations behind Bukele's use of his mega-prison for deportees was noted, with potential annual profits to alleviate the substantial costs associated with the prison system. The situation is complicated further by the involvement of a notorious gang leader among the deported individuals.
