Bukele MOCKS MS-13 Suspect's Abuse Claims With Prison Video: ‘Tortured? He Gained Weight Playing….’

Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele has released prison surveillance footage to counter claims of abuse made by Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a suspected MS-13 member deported from the U.S. to El Salvador’s high-security prison. Garcia alleged he was beaten, starved, and denied basic human needs. But Bukele shared over 3 minutes of video showing Garcia eating, gardening, fishing, and playing soccer and chess — appearing healthy and unharmed. The footage, however, was recorded after Garcia’s transfer to a different prison, sparking debate over the truth of his treatment at the infamous CECOT facility. Bukele mocked the media and courts for believing Garcia, while citing a U.S. Senator who met Garcia and saw “no signs of abuse.” Garcia remains in a U.S. prison facing human smuggling charges as legal battles over his deportation continue in Maryland. The DOJ is now pushing to dismiss Garcia’s lawsuit, but the judge has yet to agree. #Bukele #ElSalvador #GarciaCase #MS13 #PrisonAbuse #CECOT #DeportationDebate #USImmigration #SurveillanceVideo #GangViolence #KilmarGarcia #USCourt #SantaAnaPrison #SenatorVanHollen #PamBondi #TrumpPolicy #ImmigrationBattle #HumanRightsWatch #ICEDeportation #ElSalvadorNews ~HT.410~ED.346~

"Horrible Man"-Trump Blasts Court as Abrego Garcia Returns, Faces Charges After Deportation Cover-Up

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Salvadoran national at the center of a high-stakes immigration scandal, is back in the U.S. to face federal charges. After his "mistaken" deportation under the Trump administration, Garcia's return was forced by a Supreme Court order, triggering political shockwaves. Trump calls him a "horrible man" and defends his immigration hardline, while critics accuse the administration of lawless stonewalling and civil rights violations. Attorney General Pam Bondi reveals explosive new details about Garcia’s alleged migrant smuggling empire, linked to deaths, weapons trafficking, and MS-13. #Trump #ImmigrationScandal #GarciaReturns #PamBondi #SupremeCourt #MigrantCrisis #MS13 #BorderPolitics #DeportationControversy #USPolitics #BreakingNews #GarciaCase Also Read Mahua Moitra Reportedly Marries BJD Leader Pinaki Misra In Private Overseas Ceremony :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/mahua-moitra-reportedly-marries-bjd-leader-pinaki-misra-in-private-overseas-ceremony-4173011.html?ref=DMDesc 'Busy Shooting Reels...': Karnataka BJP Targets Siddaramaiah Govt Over RCB Fans Stampede In Bengaluru :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/karnataka-bjp-targets-congress-siddaramaiah-govt-over-rcb-fans-stampede-4172255.html?ref=DMDesc Wajahat Khan, Who Got Sharmishta Panoli Arrested, Goes 'Missing'; Faces FIRs In 3 States :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/wajahat-khan-who-got-sharmishta-panoli-arrested-goes-missing-faces-firs-in-3-states-4171719.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~HT.318~ED.102~
