El Salvador President Nayib Bukele has cast aside allegations that Kilmar Abrego Garcia was beaten and subject to psychological torture in a Salvadoran prison.

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

El Salvador President Nayib Bukele on Thursday denied accusations that Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the migrant returned to the U.S. in early June after being wrongfully deported to his native El Salvador, was tortured in a Salvadoran prison.
