The judge says we are trying to take the “final range” about legal protection with deportation to Ghana

On Saturday, a federal judge accused the Trump administration of trying to make the “final” about the legal obligations that the United States must protect persons who escape persecution and torture after a group of African immigrants deported Ghana, which is now scheduled to be returned to their countries of origin.

The American District Court judge, Tania Chutcan, ordered the US government to explain, by 9 pm EST on Saturday, what steps it took to prevent the deportees “from transferring them to their countries of origin or other countries who fear persecution or torture.”

Earlier this month, The United States has been deported More than ten non -two citizens to Ghana, including the two departments from Gambia and Nigeria, and make Ghana The newest country to accept This is the so -called deportation in the third country at the request of the Trump administration. The Ghana government confirmed the deportation.

Lawyers claimed in a lawsuit that the deportees had been held in “dirty circumstances surrounded by armed military guards in an outdoor detention facility” in Ghana.

Li Gilrrent, the lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union, told Cotconer during the Saturday session that four of the deportees were told that Ghana would return them to their countries of origin early on Monday, despite the fact that they have orders from American immigration judges who prevent their deportation to their home countries because of the concerns they can throw or expose them to necessity. One man from Gambia, whom the lawyers say is bi -sex, has already been returned to Gambia, according to the case.

Legal protection for phases – rooted at the United Nations Conference against Torture and the American Immigration Law, known as the blocking of removal – is prohibited from sending foreigners to countries where they will face persecution or torture. But unlike asylum, they still allow the United States to send them to other third -party countries.

The lawyer for the Ministry of Justice, which represents the US government during the session, was not contested that Ghana plans to return the deportees to their countries of origin and acknowledged that the Ghanaian government appears to be violated by diplomatic guarantees that they claim made the pledge not to send these immigrants to places in which they could be damaged.

But the lawyer of the Ministry of Justice said that the United States could not tell Ghana what to do at this stage.

Cotccan seemed frustrating because of this situation, indicating that he was “deceived”. The lawyer of the Ministry of Justice has been about whether the United States knew that this could happen and indicated that the deportations appear “in the end” to overcome the legal protection that the fun of the fun. I suggested that the United States be able to recover the deportees, return them to the United States, or transfer them to another country where they will be safe. She added that she could tell Ghana that she violates her agreement with the United States

“How is this not a violation of your commitment?” I asked the lawyer of the Ministry of Justice.

But Chutcan admitted that she may “be linked” because the deportees are neither on American soil nor in the American nursery. It also indicated that the Supreme Court will definitely stop any matter that requires the US government to act to stop the revenues.

Representatives of the state and internal security departments immediately did not respond to requests to comment on the deportation to Ghana and Chutcan.

Gilrrent, the lawyer of the American Civil Liberties Union, which represents the African deportees, praised the state of Chutcan.

“The court has realized that the United States government, knowing fully, that these individuals will be sent at risk, they cannot simply wash their hands in the matter,” Gilrrent told CBS News.

As part of its group deportation campaign, the Trump administration Sought All over the world to receive the deportees who are not citizens, and intermediate agreements with countries, including El Salvador, Kosovo, Panama and South Sudan.
