The application is one of the examples more flagrant of Trump’s unprecedented attempts to increase power Presidential since he returned to the White House in January.
Trump invoked the little known “Foreign enemies law”, approved in 1798to expel Almost 300 Venezuelans, supposedly members of the band of Aragua, to a high security prison in El Salvador. Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, He is criticized for not respecting human rights in his fight against local gangs.
The US government has used the images of the alleged members of the chained band and with a shaved head in El Salvador prison as proof that the fight against illegal immigration is taken seriously.
Human rights defenders claim that some of those deported had nothing to do with the band and even lpossible criminals have constitutional right to judicial hearings Before being expelled.
James Boasberg, federal judge of a district court of Washington, issued an order that prohibits new flights from expelled under the Law of Foreign Enemiesafter Washington sent the two planes with Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador, on March 15.
Boasberg said migrants subject to potential deportation should have “Right to individualized audiences to determine if the law applies to them”.
The American Civil Libertads Union (ACLU) has asked that prolong the validity of the order, which expires on Saturday.
A first appeal of The Trump administration was rejected on Wednesday.
