Kilmar Abrego Garcia was taken into custody Monday by immigration authorities and the Department of Homeland Security said he is being processed for deportation to Uganda.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was taken into immigration detention in Baltimore on Monday, according to his lawyer. Why it matters: Abrego Garcia's detention comes after the Trump administration indicated in court filings that it planned to deport him to Uganda after returning him earlier this year from a high security prison in El Salvador.

Shortly after Abrego was released from federal custody Friday, the Trump administration said it intended to deport him to Uganda.
