Court Denies Trump Bid to Reclaim Researcher
A U.S. court rejected an appeal by the Donald Trump administration to re-detain Palestinian-American researcher Badr Khan Souri, who defended Palestinian rights and opposed Israeli war in Gaza. The panel of judges, by a majority of two to one, ruled that federal immigration law does not prevent judges from examining the issue of his detention, reaffirming the right of the judiciary to discuss matters related to the Constitution and legal procedures after his arrest in March 2025 as part of a crackdown on pro-Palestinian foreigners. The ruling comes at a time when previous courts had ordered the release of other pro-Palestinian activists, deeming his detention retaliatory, while the court emphasized that the law does not bar judicial intervention. This decision reflects an acknowledgment of the importance of an independent judiciary in safeguarding rights and freedoms amid challenges regarding U.S. policies toward Palestinians.
