ACLU releases video of Mahmoud Khalil’s ICE arrest

Mahmoud Khalil, a recent Columbia graduate, was detained by the Department of Homeland Security without being charged with a crime nearly one week ago.
The U.S. Justice Department is investigating whether protests at Columbia University violated federal terrorism laws, according to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.
Amy Belsher of NYCLU described claims about Khalil's deportation as "extremely misleading" and emphasized the need for proof of deportability in immigration court.
Khalil is currently held at LaSalle Detention Facility in Louisiana and is expected to remain there until at least March 17th.
