Abrego Garcia may be deported to Uganda, ICE says

Abrego Garcia, an illegal immigrant whose removal from the U.S. has faced numerous legal challenges, could soon be deported to Uganda.

Garcia, accused of being an El Salvadoran MS-13 gang member, lived in Maryland for years with his wife before being deported by the Trump administration earlier this year. Garcia’s deportation has been challenged on multiple technicalities, including a court provision barring him from being sent to his home country of El Salvador due to concerns that he could be attacked by former criminal gang colleagues.
