A group of 18 Venezuelan men, recently deported by the United States, have made allegations of human rights violations at the Cecot facility, a mega-prison in El Salvador.
The claims include reports of torture and abuse, which are significant given the facility's reputation for harsh conditions and overcrowding.
These allegations may necessitate a review of operational protocols and human rights practices within the prison system, as accountability measures are called for by the deportees.
