Panamanian authorities have recaptured a woman who escaped from a hotel where she and nearly 300 deportees from the U.S. were being held. The escape and subsequent recapture have raised questions about the treatment of migrants, many of whom have expressed fears for their safety if returned to their home countries. The situation underscores the criticism faced by the Panamanian government regarding its role in U.S. deportation practices, as over 40% of the detained migrants have indicated they do not wish to return home. Security Minister Frank Abrego has stated that arrangements are being made for those unwilling to leave.
