MIAMI, United States. — The United States government leaked to the Cuban regime information about migrants from the island who are in deportation proceedings and who had requested protection from persecution or torture, officials acknowledged last Monday.

According to the newspaper los angeles timesat the beginning of December a National Security official, when communicating with the Cuban regime about the deportation flights to the country —which recently resumed after a pause of several years—, indicated “inadvertently” that some of the 103 Cubans who could having been placed on a flight had been affected by the data dump in late November.

The source to which the US media had access indicated that of the 103 Cubans facing deportation, 46 were affected by the leak.

Numerous media inside and outside Cuba echoed the revelation. One of them was The New Heraldwho contacted some of the Cubans who have deportation orders.

“We don’t understand how after this information is published, instead of giving us support, how are they going to deport us?” stated Bernal Castillo, who is currently being held at the Broward Transitional Center, an ICE detention center for immigrants located in Pompano Beach.

According to los angeles timesAt the moment, ICE is in the process of contacting the Cubans whose information was revealed, as well as their respective lawyers.

The source to which the newspaper had access assured that this agency will not immediately remove them from the United States and that it will give them the opportunity to update their protection claims. ICE lawyers are also evaluating “what options are legally available to remedy the disclosure, including possible release from custody,” an official told the Los Angeles media.
