At least 138 deported from US to El Salvador were killed: HRW
Human Rights Watch report comes as the Trump administration makes it harder for Central Americans to seek asylum in US.
At least 138 people deported to El Salvador from the United States in recent years were subsequently killed, Human Rights Watch said in a new report that comes as the Trump administration makes it harder for Central Americans to seek refuge in the country.
A majority of the deaths documented by Human Rights Watch in the report, released on Wednesday, occurred less than a year after the deportees returned to El Salvador, and some within days. The organisation also confirmed at least 70 cases of sexual assault or other violence following their arrival in the country.
“As asylum and immigration policies tighten in the United States and dire security problems continue in El Salvador, the US is repeatedly violating its obligations to protect Salvadorans from return to serious risk of harm,” HRW wrote.
