Kilmar Abrego-Garcia is a Salvadoran citizen who resides in Maryland, United States, and was deported to the Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT), a Salvadoran maximum security prison, in March 2025. Despite having both a U.S. immigration judge’s order protecting him from removal to El Salvador since 2019 and a wife and five-year-old child who are both American citizens, he was deported due to what the Trump administration called “an administrative error”.
