President Nayib Bukele, in a post on the social media platform X, wrote that Kilmar Abrego Garcia "wasn't tortured, nor did he lose weight," during his stint at a notorious El Salvador prison.

A new federal court filing says Kilmar Abrego Garcia experienced "severe beatings" and "psychological torture" in a supermax prison in El Salvador.

Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia was made to kneel overnight, denied bathroom access and confined in an overcrowded cell with bright lights and no windows, his lawyers say.
