Alleged MS-13 gangbanger Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s rank, street name revealed as fight over deportation to El Salvador megaprison rages: docs
Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the alleged MS-13 gang member who was wrongly deported to El Salvador’s notorious megaprison last month, held the rank “Chequeo” and the street name “Chele” within the vicious criminal organization, newly released documents revealed.
US Attorney General Pam Bondi shared additional evidence Wednesday to support President Trump’s claims that Abrego Garcia is a member of the violent international gang — after cops found him socializing with confirmed MS-13 gangbangers in a Maryland Home Depot parking lot in March 2019.
Following the March 28 incident in Hyattsville, a past proven and reliable source told a Hyattsville City Police Department detective that Abrego Garcia is an active member of MS-13 with the Western cliques, according to the gang field interview sheet shared on X.
The confidential source further advised that Abrego Garcia carried the rank of “Chequeo” and the moniker “Chele,” the report states.
Officers also noted that the illegal migrant’s clothing — a Chicago Bulls hat and hoodie with rolls of money covering the eyes, ears and mouth of the presidents on the different denominations — is “indicative of the Hispanic gang culture.”
“The meaning of the clothing is to represent ‘ver, oir y callar’ or ‘see no evil, hear no evil and say no evil,'” the report states.
The Bulls hat Abrego Garcia was wearing also had less to do with the sports team and more about internal happenings within the Latin gang, cops claimed in the report.
“Wearing the Chicago Bulls hat represents that they are a member in good standing with the MS-13.”
Abrego Garcia — who had been living in the Old Line State — was shipped off with 260 other reputed gang members to El Salvador’s hellhole lockup CECOT last month under the 18th-century Alien Enemies Act.
The feds have claimed he is part of the notorious MS-13 gang and that he was illegally in the country — despite never being charged with a crime and repeatedly denying the gang accusations.
Several court orders — including one from the US Supreme Court — have called on the federal government to return the Salvadoran migrant.

But the White House has repeatedly defied those orders and disavowed Abrego Garcia as being “wrongly deported” despite admitting he was booted from the country as a result of a “clerical error.”
His deportation also went against a 2019 order blocking the feds’ ability to remove him to El Salvador on the grounds that he was at risk of retaliation from gangs, like Barrio 18.
Earlier Wednesday, the Department of Homeland Security revealed that Abrego Garcia was previously accused of physically abusing his wife, a US citizen who has been fiercely advocating for his release, in an effort to rebut claims by “the media” that he was an “upstanding ‘Maryland Man.'”
“This MS-13 gang member is not a sympathetic figure,” DHS said.
Garcia’s wife, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, applied for a protective order against her husband in 2021, saying he punched, scratched, grabbed and bruised her, according to court documents.
Vasquez Sura told The Post Wednesday that when she asked for protection from Abrego Garcia in 2021, she was “acting out of caution after a disagreement with Kilmar … in case things escalated” after she survived domestic abuse “in a previous relationship.”
“Things did not escalate, and I decided not to follow through with the civil court process. We were able to work through this situation privately as a family, including by going to counseling,” she said.
“Our marriage only grew stronger in the years that followed. No one is perfect, and no marriage is perfect.”
The alleged gangbanger’s wife argued that her husband’s alleged abuse “is not justification for ICE’s actions of abducting him and deporting him to a country where he was supposed to be protected from deportation.”
Vasquez Sura insisted that Abrego Garcia is a loving partner and father.
“And I will continue to stand by him and demand justice for him,” she added.
