On April 24, 2025, demonstrators protested outside the Permanent Mission of El Salvador to the UN against the deportation of Venezuelan immigrants. A federal judge, during a hearing on their status, highlighted that there are many facts favoring their return to the U.S. The case revolves around Kilmar Abrego García, who was mistakenly expelled to a Salvadoran detention center. Judge Boasberg's questioning suggested the possibility of the U.S. having 'constructive custody' over the detainees, allowing for their return to the U.S. for due process, something the DOJ acknowledged they had not received.
Judge Boasberg indicated there are numerous facts supporting the detainees' case, specifically about the White House's power to bring them back to the U.S. for due process.
The DOJ admitted the individuals expelled to El Salvador did not receive due process prior to their deportations, raising significant legal questions about their treatment.
