Venezuela has announced an investigation into claims migrants sent to a prison in El Salvador from the US suffered human rights abuses.
More than 250 Venezuelans were repatriated to near Caracas on Friday. They had been detained in El Salvador since March following their deportation from the United States.
Venezuelan Attorney-General Tarek William Saab said there had been “systemic torture” inside the prison, which included sexual abuse, daily beatings and rotten prison food.
El Salvador is yet to respond to the claims.
