(A) – A federal judge has ordered the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from immigration detention while he fights deportation. This decision marks a significant win for Abrego Garcia, whose wrongful deportation to El Salvador became a flashpoint of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. On Thursday, the judge in Maryland ruled that Immigration and Customs Enforcement had no legal basis to detain Abrego Garcia. The Department of Homeland Security criticized the decision and plans to appeal. Abrego Garcia, who has an American wife and child, is also seeking asylum in the U.S. and faces criminal charges in Tennessee. (Photo: AP)
