A federal judge has temporarily barred the deportation of Rumeysa Ozturk, a Tufts graduate detained by ICE, providing a potential lifeline for the PhD student and Fulbright scholar. Ozturk was arrested by masked immigration agents near her Massachusetts home and accused by the US Department of Homeland Security of 'engaging in activities in support of Hamas'. The judge's intervention will allow time to resolve jurisdiction issues. Ozturk's lawyer called the decision a first step in getting her released and back home to Boston.
