US deportations raise 'serious concerns': UN rights chief
Tuesday, 13 May 2025 () The UN rights chief voiced alarm on Tuesday at the large numbers of non-nationals being deported from the United States, in particular the hundreds sent to a mega-prison in El Salvador. His office pointed in a statement to US data showing that between January 20 and 142,000 individuals had been deported from the US. It voiced particular concern at the situation after US President Donald Trump invoked the 1798 Alien Enemies Act in March to send alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua to a massive prison, CECOT, in El Salvador.
