U.S. court denies Trump admin's bid to detain Gaza researcher
An American Court of Appeals rejected an attempt by the Trump administration to detain researcher Badr Khan Suri, who advocates for Palestinian rights and opposes Israeli war in Gaza. The court, by a two-to-one majority, ruled that immigration law does not prohibit lower courts from issuing orders for his release, considering that his detention violates his rights to due process and free expression. U.S. authorities had arrested him in March 2025 during a crackdown aimed at detaining and deporting foreign nationals who show solidarity with Palestinians. He was released after a federal judge determined that it was likely his detention was retaliatory for his constitutionally protected speech. Suri affirms that an independent judiciary is the protector of liberty and legal rights.
