NEW YORK: Mahmoud Khalil, one of the most prominent leaders of US pro-Palestinian campus protests, sued the Trump administration Thursday for $20 million over his arrest and detention by immigration agents. Khalil, a legal permanent resident in the United States who is married to a US citizen and has a US-born son, had been in custody following his arrest in March. The 30-year-old was freed from a federal immigration detention center in Louisiana last month, hours after a judge ordered his release on bail. “The administration carried out its illegal plan to arrest, detain, and deport Mr.

“They are abusing their power because they think they are untouchable,” Khalil said. “Unless they feel there is some sort of accountability, it will continue to go unchecked.”

Washington rechaza la demanda de Mahmud Khalil, que pasó tres meses en una cárcel y cuya deportación sigue pendiente, e insiste en acusarle de mensajes de odio en el campus
