Detained Columbia University student activist Mahmoud Khalil appears in immigration case

Mahmoud Khalil, a detained Columbia University student activist, appeared in immigration court as his lawyers work to free him from detention, which began on March 8.
An immigration judge scheduled a fuller hearing for Khalil on April 8 following his brief court appearance in Louisiana.
Khalil's lawyers are also challenging his detention and potential deportation in federal court, as he faces the risk of being sent back under a federal statute.
Khalil stated that his detention reflects 'anti-Palestinian racism' in the U.S., while the White House Press Secretary accused him of organizing disruptive protests against Jewish students.
