19 migrants deported by US to Ghana have been moved to an unknown location, lawyer says

ACCRA: Nineteen West African nationals deported by the US to Ghana have been moved to an unknown location, a lawyer for one of the deportees said. Ana Dionne-Lanier, who represents one of the nationals, told The Associated Press on Thursday the group arrived in Ghana on Nov. 5 and were put in a hotel. They are protected from deportation to their home countries due to the risk of torture, persecution or inhumane treatment, she said. “We don’t know the location of any of them,” Dionne-Lanier said, adding that neither she nor her client’s family has been able to reach him.
