A Guatemalan man who was deported to Mexico after entering the United States last year was flown back to the country on June 4, following a federal judge’s order that found the deportation violated his rights.

The man, identified in court documents as O.C.G., had told immigration authorities he feared persecution in Mexico, where he had allegedly previously been raped and kidnapped, according to filings by his legal team.
