By Tuesday morning, the men were already on a plane. A federal judge in Boston who has already forbidden the Trump administration from sending foreign nationals to so-called “third-party countries." | Francis Chung/POLITICO By Kyle Cheney 05/20/2025 04:50 PM EDT Updated: 05/20/2025 04:59 PM EDT The Trump administration has deported at least two immigrants to war-torn South Sudan in defiance of a federal court order, according to attorneys for the immigrants. The two men are originally from Myanmar and Vietnam and were being held in U.S. immigration custody. Their lawyers say they learned of the deportation plan after receiving an abrupt notice Monday evening. By Tuesday morning, the men were already on a plane along with as many as 10 other deportees, the lawyers said. The lawyers revealed these details in an emergency motion to a federal judge in Boston who hasalready forbidden the Trump administration from sending foreign nationals to so-called “third-party countries,” rather than their country of origin, without providing “meaningful” notice and a chance to raise concern about torture. That judge, U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy, has already intervened once before when the Trump administration seemed poised to deport people to Libya, a country that, like South Sudan, is mired in a humanitarian crisis. Murphy declared that summary deportations to Libya would “clearly” violate his earlier order. Lawyers for the Burmese man, identified by the initials N.M. in court papers, say he was originally slated to be on one of those flights to Libya, which they say were aborted amid national media and legal scrutiny. They also say the notice to N.M. about the deportation to South Sudan was provided only in English, apparently violating another requirement of Murphy’s order because N.M. has limited English proficiency. The Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to a request for comment. South Sudan, a landlocked country in East Africa, gained independence from Sudan in 2011. It is the world’s newest widely recognized sovereign state. The country descended into civil war in 2013, causing tens of thousands of deaths and displacing millions of people. According to the CIA, the country remains plagued by ethnic violence and is facing a food crisis, with nearly two-thirds of the country’s 11 million citizens in need of humanitarian assistance. A March 2025 advisory from the U.S. State Department recommends that Americans not travel to South Sudan due to a high risk of violent crime and weak human rights. unquote Trump admin deports Asian immigrants to South Sudan in violation of court order, lawyers say - POLITICO Deporting anyone to a place like Sudan or Libya is an extremely grave violation of human rights. It is impossible to imagine any leader who claims to be civilized would do such a thing. 1 Quote

blackbird Posted June 26 Author Report Posted June 26 (edited) " Serious rights concerns OHCHR has received information from family members and lawyers regarding more than 100 Venezuelans believed to be held in CECOT. The reports indicate that many were not informed of the US Government’s intention to deport them to be detained in a third country. Furthermore, many had no access to a lawyer and were unable to challenge the lawfulness of their removal before being flown out. “This situation raises serious concerns regarding a wide array of rights that are fundamental to both US and international law,” Mr. Türk said. They include the rights to due process, protection from arbitrary detention, equality before the law, and protection from exposure to torture or other irreparable harm in other States. Families feel powerless Neither the US nor Salvadoran authorities have published official lists of the detainees, and their legal status in El Salvador remains unclear. Many family members interviewed by OHCHR voiced deep distress at not knowing where, and in what circumstances, their loved ones are being held. Some only became aware when they recognized their relatives from videos on social media of them in or being taken to CECOT.
