This case concerns the right to liberty and due process for migrants deported by the Trump administration who remain detained in Eswatini, a country where they have no familial or social ties. Approximately 160 migrants, including 19 women and 5 men, have been held at the Matsapha Correctional Centre for over two weeks. The United States Department of Homeland Security and State Department are involved in the deportations, while the African Commission on Human and the American Commission on Human Rights have raised concerns about the legality and humanitarian impact of detaining these migrants in a foreign country with no connection to them.

The dispute centers on whether this detention is a proportionate and lawful restriction of migrants' rights. The African Commission is currently reviewing the situation and considering further action.
