An immigration judge in Louisiana will decide this week whether to continue detaining Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia University activist facing deportation for his involvement in pro-Palestinian campus protests. Khalil's attorney has not received any evidence or assertions from the government regarding the case. If the government cannot produce justification for his removal, the judge may terminate the case on Friday. Khalil's detention and potential deportation have also been challenged before a federal judge in New Jersey.
