Dhaka, April 19: As per the prior announcement of U.S. President Donald Trump, the process of deporting illegal Bangladeshi immigrants residing in the country has begun. Today at 12 PM, the first flight carrying five Bangladeshi nationals landed in Dhaka.
Under the U.S. immigration policy, the initiative to deport illegal immigrants has now been extended to Bangladeshi nationals. On Saturday, April 19, a special flight landed at Dhazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka, as part of the process of deporting Bangladeshis who were living illegally in the United States.
This flight was operated by Gryphon Air, a charter airline primarily providing services to the U.S. military.
Gryphon Air is a specialized charter airline that primarily serves the U.S. military. However, it has played a significant role in implementing U.S. immigration policies concerning deportation. The airline collaborates with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to conduct flights that repatriate illegal immigrants to their home countries.
Charter airlines like Gryphon Air work under contracts with the U.S. government to facilitate deportation flights. They are responsible for ensuring the safety and proper transportation of deportees. However, concerns have been raised regarding human rights issues, including allegations of harsh treatment or inadequate security measures for deportees.
While Gryphon Air is primarily a military service provider, its role in immigration enforcement has expanded over time. The airline operates deportation flights that assist in implementing the U.S. government's stringent immigration policies.
In the first phase, five Bangladeshi immigrants were deported—four men and one woman.
Among those deported, one was from Cumilla district, two from Noakhali, one from Chattogram, and one from Sylhet.
The special flight was originally scheduled to return on Friday but was delayed by a day, arriving in Dhaka on Saturday afternoon. According to sources, these individuals had traveled to the U.S. for various reasons, but they were living without legal documentation. Their status violated U.S. immigration laws, leading to their repatriation.
Under the Trump administration, this marks the first official deportation of Bangladeshi illegal immigrants from the U.S. It reflects the administration’s strict enforcement of immigration laws. Sources indicate that this process will continue, with more illegal Bangladeshi immigrants being deported in phases.
As part of this policy, the U.S. government identifies undocumented immigrants and arranges special flights to return them to their home countries.
