In a new lawsuit filed last week, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland father illegally deported in March by the Trump administration, alleges he was subjected to starvation, severe beatings, and sleep deprivation inside El Salvador’s US-backed CECOT prison,

A new federal court filing says Kilmar Abrego Garcia experienced "severe beatings" and "psychological torture" in a supermax prison in El Salvador.

At the notorious CECOT prison, he was forced to frog-march and to kneel from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., and he was subjected to beatings and threats, his lawyers said Wednesday.
