El Salvador Blocks US Senator’s Visit To Wrongfully Deported Man Amid MS-13 Allegations | WATCH

U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen was denied access to Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a wrongfully deported Salvadoran man held in a notorious prison in El Salvador. Despite a Supreme Court ruling and official acknowledgment of error, El Salvador refuses to release him. The senator accused Trump’s administration of paying to keep Abrego imprisoned. President Bukele remains firm, defying diplomatic pressure. Abrego’s case raises serious concerns over the misuse of the Alien Enemies Act and wrongful deportations under false MS-13 allegations. Lawyers claim no trial, no charges, and no legal access. #ElSalvador #Deportation #ChrisVanHollen #MS13 #TrumpAdministration #Bukele #HumanRights #PrisonerRights #USPolitics #SupremeCourt #ForeignPolicy #BidenVsTrump #WrongfulDeportation #KilmarAbrego #ImmigrationJustice #BreakingNews #InternationalRelations #SenateForeignRelations #IllegalDeportation #NoDueProcess Also Read US Government Remains Silent on Steps to Return Mistakenly Deported Man from El Salvador :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-facilitating-return-of-deported-man-el-salvador-011-4122509.html?ref=DMDesc Tragic Helicopter Crash in El Salvador Kills Police Director and Fugitive Banker :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/el-salvador-helicopter-crash-claims-police-chief-banker-011-3930103.html?ref=DMDesc Brutal Reality Of El Salvador's Mega Prison Where Those Who Enter Never Return :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/brutal-reality-of-el-salvadors-mega-prison-where-those-who-enter-never-return-3859371.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.346~HT.408~GR.124~
