() The wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland man mistakenly deported to El Salvador, sought a restraining order against her husband, alleging domestic violence, according to a 2021 court filing posted on social media by the Department of Homeland Security.

In its post, DHS officials wrote, “Kilmar Abrego Garcia had a history of violence and was not the upstanding ‘Maryland Man’ the media has portrayed him as.”

His lawyers have not responded to a request for comment regarding the order or the move by DHS to post it on X.

Jennifer Vasquez Sura files order against Kilmar Abrego Garcia

The order was filed by Jennifer Vasquez Sura in 2021 in a Maryland court, according to the documents shared by DHS. The affidavit for the temporary restraining order alleges that Abrego Garcia punched and scratched his wife, ripped her shirt and grabbed and bruised her.

“The court orders that the above named respondent SHALL NOT abuse, threaten to abuse, and/or harass the petitioner and others to be protected,” the documents posted by DHS read. “That the above named respondent SHALL NOT contact the protected parties by any means.”

Vasquez Sura has appeared in court as her husband’s deportation case has been argued, speaking to the media on his behalf and saying she would “not stop fighting until I see my husband alive.”

“Kilmar is a father, a son, a brother, and a proud member of CASA and Smart Union who has dedicated himself to making our family’s American Dream a reality,” she told reporters. “That dream was shattered on March 12 when he was abducted and disappeared by the United States government in front of 5-year-old child. Today is 34 days after his disappearance, and I stand before you filled with a spirit that refuses to come down.”

Kilmar Abrego Garcia sent to El Salvador

Abrego Garcia was sent to El Salvador after an “administrative error” was made, and placed him on an airplane among immigrants ordered to be deported. His deportation has led to a lengthy legal fight between the Trump administration and judicial system.

As of Wednesday, Abrego Garcia remains in El Salvador despite a U.S. Supreme Court order for plans to be made for his return to the United States.

Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., said he has requested to visit Abrego Garcia in El Salvador but was told by the country’s vice president that “more time was needed” to arrange a visit to the prison where Abrego Garcia is being held.

White House officials have portrayed Abrego Garcia as a violent member of the MS-13 gang. His attorney, Benjamin Osorio, told ‘s “CUOMO” that there is no current proof that Abrego Garcia has any affiliation with the notorious gang.
