A Venezuelan migrant, Franco Jos Caraballo Tiapa, has been deported from the United States to El Salvador, despite having no apparent record or connection to the country. Caraballo Tiapa was detained in February during a routine check-in with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Texas. His wife reported losing contact with him on Saturday, just prior to his deportation.
According to sources, Caraballo Tiapa arrived in the U.S. seeking asylum from Venezuela. The reason for his deportation to El Salvador, rather than Venezuela or another location, remains unclear. Advocates are raising concerns about the circumstances surrounding the deportation, highlighting the lack of due process and potential misidentification. The case underscores the complexities and challenges faced by migrants navigating the U.S. immigration system, particularly those from Venezuela seeking refuge.
