The US government will deport former Venezuelan baseball player Oswaldo Pirela to Venezuela. This action comes as the US urges individuals with irregular migration status to leave the country. Officials state Pirela previously held a residency permit which expired in 2018. The deportation order signals a continued focus on immigration enforcement by the US authorities. Details surrounding the specific reasons for the deportation beyond the expired permit remain limited. Pirela’s case highlights the challenges faced by individuals navigating the US immigration system, even those with prior legal status. The news was originally reported by EL NACIONAL.
