GOVERNMENT’S Case Against Khalil Under Fire: Is Justice Being Twisted?
— The government’s case against Mahmoud Khalil, a permanent U.S. resident and former Columbia University student, is drawing criticism for using questionable sources. Khalil was arrested on campus and faces deportation due to his pro-Palestinian activism.
NBC News reviewed over 100 pages of documents from the federal government and Khalil’s legal team. The evidence suggests that the claims supporting his deportation are weak.
Khalil’s legal team submitted various documents, including his residency application and work experience records, to challenge the government’s assertions. A British Commonwealth spokesperson clarified that Khalil hasn’t worked for them in over two years.
