The protection organization of civil rights denounces the inhumane conditions prevailing there – it considers US immigration policy violated
A US organization of civil rights has announced yesterday that it had appealed to justice to prevent President Donald Trump’s government from transferring 10 US immigrants to the US Naval Base in Guantanamo, Cuba, there.
ACLU, who lodged the appeal to a Washington federal court, estimated that this move by Trump’s government violates US immigration policy as Immigrants will be transported outside the countryand estimated that it aims to capture fears without a reasonable basis.
The ten detainees referring to the appeal are men from Venezuela, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan for which a definitive deportation decision has been issued. These men- who are currently held in Texas, Arizona and Virginia- are not members of gangs or high-risk criminals, the organization said, expressing fears that “they may be exposed to immediate danger, including refusal to have access to the outside world and the potential.”
OR Maklaflin A spokeswoman for the Ministry of Interior yesterday described ACLU’s appeal yesterday.
Trump is committed to exporting a number of records of immigrants who are irregularly in the US. In the context of efforts to expand the deportations, the government began in early February to send immigrants to the infamous US base to Guantanamo, which has become known because they were suspected of terrorism.
Cuban and Haitian immigrants arrested at sea have been being held in Guantanamo for decades. But the Trump government’s decision to transfer immigrants from the US is unprecedented, the organization said.
US Secretary of State Security Christie Noem has stated that in Guantanamo the authorities send “The worst of the worst”, But about one -third of a first group of 177 Venezuelans that were transferred there had no criminal record, according to the ministry.
In its appeal, ACLU reports that immigrants held in Guantanamo remain in cells without a window for at least 23 hours a day, undergo humiliating physical research and cannot have contact with their families.
“These humiliating conditions and extreme isolation have led to many suicide attempts,” the appeal said.
A federal judge prevented mid -February the transfer of Venezuelan immigrants to Guantanamo, but they were subsequently deported to Venezuela.
