WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Kilmar Abrego, the migrant whose wrongful deportation to his native El Salvador made him a symbol of President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown, must remain in the United States through at least October, a judge said during a court hearing on Wednesday.

The hearing before U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis in Maryland signaled that Abrego's legal battle is far from over, with his attorneys vowing to pursue multiple avenues to block the Trump administration's latest plan to deport him to Uganda.
