New York, December 18 (RHC)-- As many as 1,360 children have never been reunited with their parents six years after the previous Trump administration forcibly separated them at the U.S.-Mexico border. 

According to a new report by Human Rights Watch, the U.S.-based group also warns against the return to power of some of the key architects and enforcers of Trump’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy, which caused long-lasting harm and trauma to asylum-seeking families. 

The officials include Tom Homan, who has been nominated by Trump to serve as his so-called 'border czar.'  Human Rights Watch has urged the U.S. Senate to reject the appointment of any officials involved in the family separation policy, which the group says “constituted enforced disappearance and may have constituted torture.”
