People sent back to Mexico under a Trump-era policy have faced dangerous conditions like rape, kidnapping and assault.

Asylum-seekers turned away at the United States’ southern border over the last four months have reported nearly 500 cases of attacks or kidnappings in Mexico, according to a new joint report from three human rights and immigration organizations. Human Rights First, Al Otro Lado and Haitian Bridge Alliance documented 492 reports of violent attacks since Biden took office, including rape, kidnapping and assault. In each case, the victim was someone who had been turned away at the border under Title 42, a law invoked by the Trump administration that allows border officials to send people back under the pretense of pandemic safety.

The Biden administration has been criticized for continuing the use of Title 42. Since March 2020, U.S. Customs and Border Protection has expelled more than 642,700 people under the order, including over 100,000 people in March 2021 alone.
