US Board of Immigration Appeals reinstates deportation proceedings against Palestinian student Mohsen Mahdawi
The US Board of Immigration Appeals overturned an immigration judge's February decision to block deportation proceedings against Columbia University student Mohsen Mahdawi, a Palestinian who was arrested following pro-Palestinian protests. Immigration Judge Nina Froes had ruled the Trump administration failed to meet its burden of proof and dismissed evidence as inadmissible before being fired by the administration last month. Mahdawi has accused the government of weaponizing the immigration system to silence his advocacy for Palestinian rights.
