A coalition of immigrant rights advocates has filed a federal lawsuit against the Trump administration for detaining migrants, notably at Guantánamo Bay, to instill fear among the immigrant community. The lawsuit, spearheaded by organizations like the ACLU, alleges that migrants face punitive conditions and are deprived of legal counsel. The case specifically names two Nicaraguan men detained under harsh circumstances, raising serious concerns about the administration's treatment of migrants and the use of military facilities for immigration detention.
The Coalition brought the case on behalf of two Nicaraguan men previously detained at facilities in Virginia and Louisiana—Yamil Luna Gutierrez and Rafael Angel Lopez Ocon—against the Trump administration.
The lawsuit claims the government is instilling fear in the immigrant population by holding them in Guantanamo Bay without legitimate cause, under harsh conditions and away from legal counsel.
