US Deportees Sent to Equatorial Guinea Beaten, Imprisoned
Original: “Extraordinary Rendition All Over Again”: US Deportees Sent to Equatorial Guinea Beaten, Imprisoned
Reports describe US deportees sent to Equatorial Guinea being beaten and imprisoned after arrival, prompting comparisons to the US practice of extraordinary rendition. Critics say the deportations amount to outsourcing detention to a country with a widely criticized human rights record, and the story is drawing strong reactions from rights advocates and audiences concerned about treatment of migrants and asylum seekers.
Why now: New allegations that deported migrants faced abuse after being sent to Equatorial Guinea are renewing criticism of US deportation policies.
