Brazil Intervenes as 88 Deportees Arrive From US in Handcuffs; FAB Transports Amid Abuse Reports
Jan 25, 2025, 09:18 PM
A group of 88 Brazilian immigrants deported from the United States arrived in Brazil, initially landing in Manaus due to technical issues with the aircraft. The Brazilian government intervened after discovering that the deportees were handcuffed and shackled during the flight, which was deemed a 'flagrant disrespect' to their fundamental rights. The Brazilian Air Force (FAB) mobilized a KC-30 aircraft to transport 84 of the deportees from Manaus to their final destination, Belo Horizonte, without restraints, while four stayed in Manaus. The deportees reported experiencing physical abuse, including punches and kicks, and harsh conditions during the flight. This comes amidst U.S. President Donald Trump's recent policy to deport 538 immigrants, including 1.4 million who entered under previous programs. The Brazilian Foreign Ministry is seeking explanations from the U.S. government regarding the 'degrading treatment' of the Brazilian citizens.
