The 2 -year -old Venezuelan girl who remained under the custody of the United States government after her parents were deported have been returned to Venezuela.
In a video posted on the YouTube page of the president of Venezolan, Nicolas Maduro, Maduro is seen greeting the child to the child.
The child, Maikelys Antonella Espinoza, is seen in the video taken by the first Venezuelan lady Cilia Flores before being handed over to the child’s mother, Yorley Inciarte, who had been deported two weeks ago from the United States.
Espinoza’s return occurs after Maduro and other officials of the Venezuelan government accused the Trump administration of kidnapping the 2 -year -old boy.
Last month, the National Security Department labeled Inciarte and his fellow Maiker Espinoza Escalona as “Aragua’s parents”, claiming that the two are members of the Venezuelan criminal gang.
Escalona was sent to the mega prisbil de Cecot in El Salvador on March 30 under the authorities of Title 8. Inciarte was deported two weeks ago to Venezuela without his daughter.

“The child’s father, Maiker Espinoza-Escalona is a Aragua train lieutenant who supervises the homicides, the sale of drugs, kidnappings, extortion, sexual trafficking and operates a house of torture,” DHS said in a statement. “The child’s mother, Yorely Escarleth Bernal Inciarte, supervises the recruitment of young women for drug smuggling and prostitution.”
“Everything is false,” Inciarte told ABC News in an interview last week. “Here I am waiting for the evidence they have because they are accusing me, it is because they have evidence of what they are saying, but here I am waiting.”
Inciarte separated from his partner and daughter after they entered the United States last year and delivered to the authorities. After being detained in a detention center for several months in Texas, Inciarte requested a deportation order so that he could meet with his son, who is not an American citizen, one of his lawyers told ABC News.
But Inciarte ended up being deported without her daughter, who DHS said she remained in the care and custody of the refugee resettlement office.
“When my partner and my daughter get here, the only thing I [will] Think about staying here in my country, “Inciarte told ABC News last week.” Because the only one who supported me and fought with me was my country, nobody else. “
