US supreme court clears way for deportations of eight men to South Sudan | US immigration
The Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to deport to South Sudan, who had fought for a country that had almost none of the eight men organized at an American military base in Djibouti for weeks.
Most men are from countries including Vietnam, South Korea, Mexico, Laos, Cuba and Myanmar. Only one of South Sudan.
On Thursday, the Supreme Court’s order came after the court’s conservative majority decided last month that immigration officials could deport people to countries without any connections. This order, if a judge of the judge of the judge sent to third countries first sent to torture, persecution or death should be given the opportunity to prove to torture, persecution or death.
Trina Realmuto, the lawyer of eight men and the National Migration Case Alliance, said that eight men can be ılma with dangerous conditions and potentially detained in arrival ”.
The two liberal judges opposed Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson, saying that the decision was treated specially to the government. Sotomayor, “what the government wants to do in a concrete way is to send those who are not illegally removed from Djibouti from Djibouti to South Sudan, and they will be delivered to local authorities, regardless of the possibilities of torture or death,” Sotomayor wrote.
“Today’s order is only clarifying one thing: other plaintiffs need to follow the rules, but the administration has a highly high court in the dial,” he added.
The Trump administration is looking for an agreement with various countries to accept those who deported the US government to their homeland.
Eight men waiting to be deported to South Sudan were convicted of serious crimes emphasized by the Trump administration to justify their exiles. Many had either finished or finished service sentences, and there were “lifting orders olan that led them to leave the United States.
Like Tuan Thanh Phan, who came from Vietnam to the United States when he was a child and was convicted of killing someone in a gang debate at the age of 18, he planned to return to his own country after serving his sentence.
Instead, the US government first told these men that they would be deported to South Africa and were asked to sign documents that admitted that they were deported. The rejection and their cases came before the Massachusetts region of Judge Brian E Murphy, which decided that the government had to provide a “written notification iye to any immigrant deported to a third country and gave them the opportunity to express a“ reasonable fear of torture ”.
Instead, men were told that they were deported to South Sudan. The government did not immediately inform Murphy about where men were and where they were sent. Finally, his flights landed to Camp Lemonnier, an American military base in Djibouti.
Migration and Customs Protection (ICE) agents made 12 hours of shifts, protecting men. In a sworn court statement, an official described the illnesses between detainees and state representatives, inadequate medical care, malaria risks and the attacks of militants in Yemen.
In May, the Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to intervene and allow the government to allow the men to deport South Sudan.
If the authorities could not quickly send them back to their homeland, they made agreements with several countries to host immigrants.
The White House and the Department of Internal Security did not respond immediately to messages looking for comments.
