A spokesman for the Coast Guard did not directly connect the rescue operation to Thursday’s boat strike in the eastern Pacific Ocean. The vessel sent the man to Costa Rica, and recovered two dead bodies.
The emergency request came a day before the Trump administration was supposed to outline how to allow nearly 140 Venezuelans deported to El Salvador to challenge their expulsion.
Besides El Salvador, where the United States have already sent detainees, Rwanda and Libya have records of mistreating migrant detainees.
The solicitor general contended that a group of migrants had barricaded themselves inside a Texas detention center and threatened to take hostages.
The judge pressed a lawyer for the Justice Department on the government’s role and responsibilities in the men’s deportation and incarceration in El Salvador.
Internal documents and interviews with people familiar with the operation reveal how the White House seized on a wartime law to accelerate immigrant deportations.
A declaration by an ICE official says an English-language form was “read and explained” to the detainees and that they had “no less than 12 hours” to express the intent to challenge their deportations.
The case, involving a 20-year-old Venezuelan, comes on the heels of another legal battle over the fate of a different man wrongfully sent to El Salvador by the Trump administration.
The Biden-era program has allowed hundreds of thousands of migrants from Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela and Haiti to enter the United States and work legally.
