Wrongly deported migrant Abrego detained again, may be sent to Uganda
Kilmar Abrego, the migrant whose wrongful deportation to El Salvador made him a symbol of US President Donald Trump’s aggressive immigration policies, attends an event with supporters as he appears for a check-in at the ICE Baltimore field office three days after his release from criminal custody in Tennessee, Maryland, US on August 25, 2025.
Kilmar Abrego, the migrant whose wrongful deportation to his native El Salvador made him a symbol of President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown, was detained again by US immigration officials in Baltimore on Monday and may be deported a second time, this time to Uganda.
The Trump administration's push to deport Abrego, 30, to an African country where he has no ties is the latest twist in a saga that began in March, when US authorities mistakenly sent him to El Salvador.
