A federal court has issued a temporary restraining order preventing the Trump administration from transferring three Venezuelan illegal aliens, currently detained in New Mexico, to the Guantánamo Bay detention facility in Cuba. This legal action challenges the administration’s broader initiative to relocate certain detained illegals to Guantánamo Bay.
Attorneys for the illegal aliens claim they are not members of the Tren de Aragua gang. They also cite a lack of “availability of legal process and counsel” for the accused.
Judge Kenneth J. Gonzales, a Barack Obama appointee, granted the temporary restraining order, according to attorney Jessica Vosburgh, who represents the three men.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) had recently begun transporting individuals it identifies as “criminal illegal aliens” to Guantánamo Bay, utilizing vacant detention facilities at the U.S. military base. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem emphasized that this measure is temporary, aiming to ensure the secure detention of these individuals until they can be repatriated or relocated to appropriate destinations.
The court’s decision underscores the ongoing legal and ethical debates surrounding the detention and treatment of immigrants, particularly concerning the use of military facilities like Guantánamo Bay for housing detainees.
