Mariam, a 25-year-old Afghan woman, was expelled from the U.S. to Panama on a military plane. When she asked Panamanian immigration authorities if she could get asylum in Panama, they told her, 'Panama can't accept asylum. You cannot stay in Panama. You have to go back to your own country.' She told Human Rights Watch she was very anxious and scared, could not eat due to stress, was not sleeping, and had experienced a change in her mental health. She said, 'Normally, I am very happy, and I have no trouble with eating or sleeping. But now, many nights I don't sleep, and I have no appetite.'
