Kilmar Abrego Garcia was allegedly beaten and psychologically tortured during his time at CECOT, according to new court filings – reigniting a closely watched case playing out in two U.S. courts.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia said he suffered severe beatings, severe sleep deprivation and psychological torture in the notorious El Salvador prison the Trump administration had deported him to in March, according to court documents filed Wednesday.
