Originally Published 5 months ago — by ABC News
Venezuelan men deported from the U.S. to El Salvador allege they faced physical and psychological abuse at CECOT prison, including beatings and humiliation, while denying gang membership. The U.S. government used wartime laws to deport alleged gang members, but the deportees describe harsh treatment and lack of legal access, with some expressing a desire to return to the U.S. under different circumstances.
