    Protestors hold signs as they march towards the White House during a Free Kilmar Abrego and an Anti-Trump protest, in Washington, DC, April 19, 2025. Abrego Garcia was detained in Maryland last month and expelled to El Salvador along with 238 Venezuelans and 22 fellow Salvadorans who were deported shortly after President Donald Trump invoked a rarely-used wartime authority. 
Trump administration officials have claimed he is an illegal migrant, a gang member and involved in human trafficking, without providing evidence. 
A federal judge has since ordered he be returned, later backed up by the Supreme Court.
But the administration -- despite admitting an "administrative error" in his deportation -- contends he is now solely in Salvadoran custody. (Photo by Richard PIERRIN / AFP)
