76名危地马拉未成年人在劳动日周末几乎被驱逐出境,他们的律师为76名危地马拉未成年人寻求法院命令阻止类似的遣返,辩称这违反了《人口贩运受害者保护重新授权法》。 Lawyers for 76 Guatemalan minors, who were almost deported over Labor Day weekend, are seeking a court order to block similar removals, arguing it violates the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act. 司法部官员声称,驱逐是依法进行的,是危地马拉政府和未成年人监护人要求的。 Justice Department officials claim the deportations followed the law and were requested by the Guatemalan government and the minors' guardians. 然而,未成年人的律师认为,有些儿童没有监护人要求返回,有些儿童害怕返回危地马拉。 However, the minors' lawyers argue some children did not have guardians requesting their return and some feared returning to Guatemala.
