Over a weekend when President Donald Trump secretly invoked the centuries-old Alien Enemies Act to speed up some deportations and a federal judge abruptly stopped him from doing so, Trump administration officials claim they sent more than 200 suspected gang members to a new mega-prison in El Salvador.

Human rights advocates warn that the deportees legal rights were violated as they were transferred to the CECOT, a mega-prison established by El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele for his crackdown on gangs in the country. The facility, according to the Associated Press, can hold up to 40,000 inmates; up to 70 people are housed in a single cell.
