The outcome of the Mahmoud Khalil case was important because a number of foreign students were detained by ICE following Khalil and are now awaiting deportation. Khalil’s deportation is possible because of his existence in the US, according to an immigration judge, Jamee E Comans, on Friday, because it posed “potentially major foreign policy consequences.” The prosecutor argued that the government established by compelling evidence that he is replaceable.
His attorneys argued that the verdict may be appealed, and that he wouldn’t soon be deported. Prior to now, federal courts in New York and New Jersey had mandated that Khalil’s case never be deported while his case is still in court.
Rumeysa Ozturkl, a graduate student from Turkey at Tuft University who was detained by emigration authorities close to her Massachusetts home, has been demanding her release. She has updated her accounts of how ICE agents allegedly approached her phone.
Rumeysa’s case is similar to Khalil’s, but Khalil is also a US resident because of his union to Dr. Noorr Abdallah, who will become a family the following month.
The plea to relieve her was filed in a Boston judge, and it will be heard on Monday in Vermont.
Ozturk was one of four individuals who criticised the school’s response to student protesters ‘ demands that Tufts “acknowledge the genocide against Palestinians” and share its assets and withdraw from businesses with ties to Israel in an op-ed in the school paper, The Tufts Daily, last year.

Kristi Noem, a DHS official, predicted that if Khalil is deported,” great farewell.” Noem wrote,” Mahmoud Khalil hates the United States and what we stand for, so his expulsion should come as delightful information.”
” It is a pleasure to be given a card or natural cards to live and study in the United States of America. You should not be in this region when you support violence, praise and help terrorists who enjoy the killing of Americans, and harass Jews,” Noem wrote.
What Mahmoud Khalil said following the ruling
There is nothing more crucial to this jury than due process rights and fundamental fairness, as you previously stated. Evidently, neither of these principles were provide today or throughout this entire process as we witnessed today. I’ve been sent to this jury, 1, 000 km away from my family, because of this. I just hope the thousands of others who have been without hearing for months receive the necessity you have deemed appropriate for me,” Khalil said.
