A recent report by Costa Rica's ombudsman highlighted the harrowing experiences of 135 deportees from the U.S., many of whom were unaware of their location and desperately attempting to contact family. These deportees included children and lacked necessary documentation, complicating family verification. Most of the deportees came from Uzbekistan, China, and Armenia, highlighting the Trump administration's deportation policies. However, Costa Rica's security minister contested the ombudsman's findings, claiming that the assessment was based on a limited timeframe rather than the entire journey to their final destination.
Many migrants arrived in Costa Rica without even knowing where they were and were desperately seeking to reach their relatives to let them know their circumstances.
Costa Rica's security minister, Mario Zamora, disputed the ombudsman office's claims, asserting that its assessment was based on a two-hour period after the migrants landed.
