An immigration judge in Louisiana is allowing Trump Administration to proceed with his effort to deport the columbia University worker Mahmud Khalil,
Assistant Chief Commission Judge Zumi Commons ruled that the suggestion of “adverse foreign policy results” for the US is “appropriate for facials”.
On this basis, the judge gave Syria or Algeria to the lawyers of Khalil till 23 April to file an application for relief to prevent its exile.
Commons accumulated in another exile ground quoted by the Trump administration: one claim that Khalil committed immigration as he left information about his work history in his Green Card application. Commons determined Friday afternoon.
Khalil has been targeted for exile for protests against Israel on the Columbia University campus.
After the Commons issued his decision, Khalil, participated in a blue uniform and sandals, asked to allow comments.
Khalil mentioned that the judge had previously talked about “fixed process and fundamental fairness”, and the alumni of Columbia said that those principles were not followed even today.
Khalil said that the Trump administration sent him “1,000 miles” from his family. He concluded the judge by telling that the cases of other migrants detained here in Jena, Louisiana should also be addressed with urgency.
A lawyer for Khalil said in a statement after hearing, “Today, we saw our worst fears playing: Mahmood was subject to the fixed process, a quarrelsome violation of his right to hear hearing, and a weapons of the immigration law to suppress the dissatisfaction. This is not. This is not our fight.
Mark van der Hout said, “If Mahmud can be targeted in this way, simply to speak for Palestinians and use his constitutionally protected rights for free speech, it can happen on any issue on any issue,” Mark Van Der Hout said.
Commons determined Friday afternoon. Khalil has been targeted for exile for protests against Israel on the Columbia University campus.
The government has not accused Khalil of any crime, but it has argued in the immigration court that it should be stripped of its green card and should be deported on the basis of two citizens immigration.
The Trump administration has called for a provision of a provision of the immigration law, which allows the government to obtain non -recognition, whose “appearance or activities” are prescribed “are potentially serious adverse. Foreign policy results to the United States. ,
Facked with a time limit this week provide evidence Against Khalil, Homeland Security Department filed A memorandum Foreign Policy Secretary Marco Rubio underlined the justification of foreign policy.
Rubio did not give any specific evidence against Khalil, a 30 -year -old legal permanent resident, which American citizen wife It is in late stages of pregnancy. But he said Khalil’s presence in the country “in addition to efforts to protect Jewish students from oppression and violence in the United States, reducing the American policy to combat anti-Jewishism worldwide and in the United States.”
The Trump government has allegedly alleged that Khalil failed to disclose some information in his Green Card application and cheated the immigration, including his work for the British Embassy in Berut and the United Nations Agency for Palestinian migrants and refugees.
Khalil lawyers strictly criticized the government’s case against Rubio’s memorandum and Khalil. They claim that the government is violating Khalil’s right to free speech.
“If the Secretary of State claims the power to arrest, detain and deport someone, including a valid permanent resident, just because the person disintegrates with the US foreign policy, no limit. There is no beginning for such executive power and no end,” Johnny Cinodis called a lawyer for Khalil’s immigration case.
Khalil has filed a separate lawsuit against the government on his arrest, custody and attempt to deport it. The case demands an order in the federal court in New Jersey, which will require both Khalil’s release and Rubio to cancel their determination. This asks a judge to prevent the Trump administration to prevent nonsuction from targeting “who are engaged in constitutionally protected expressive activity in the United States in support of Palestinian Rights or Criticism of Israel.”
