A few weeks outside the detention of Palestinian activist Mahmúd Khalil strives for justice because his legal team filed $ 20 million against Trump’s administration on Thursday and accused him of false imprisonment, promoting prosecution and “AntiSemite” to protest him for his high profile.
The entitlement, the necessary step before the lawsuit under the Federal offenses Act focuses on the Ministry of Internal Security, American Immigration and the enforcement of customs facilities (ICE) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as stated by AP.
He comes as a case of deportation against Khalil, a thirty -year -old recent postgraduate student at Columbia University, continues to intersect the immigration system.

The goal, Khalil said, is to send a message that he will not be intimidated in silence. “They abuse their power because they think they are inviolable,” Khalil said. “If he does not feel that there is any responsibility, it will continue to be checked,” said AP.
Khalil said he was planning to share any money to deal with others focused on the “unsuccessful” effort of Trump to suppress the pro-Palestinian speech. Instead of settlement, he would also accept an official apology and changes in the deportation of administration.
In an e -mail statement, Tricia McLaughlin, a spokesman for the Ministry of Internal Security, rejected Mahmúd Khalil’s assertion as “absurd”, accused him of engaging in “hateful behavior and rhetoric”, which allegedly threatened Jewish students.
Khalil’s submission, however, claims that Trump and other officials organized a ruthless and illegal campaign aimed at intimidating his and his family, starting with his arrest on March 8.

That night he said he had returned home from dinner with his wife Noor Abdalla when he was “effectively kidnapped” by federal agents who refused to give orders and looked surprised to find that she was a legal permanent resident.
Then he was beaten overnight into an immigration prison in Jena, Louisiana, a remote place that was “intentionally hidden” from his family and lawyers.

Inside Khalil, he said he was denied a cure for an ulcer, forced to sleep under harsh lamps and fed “almost inedible” food, which caused him to lose 15 pounds (7 kilograms). “I can’t remember the night when I didn’t go hungry,” Khalil recalled, as the AP said.
Meanwhile, Trump’s administration publicly celebrated arrests and promised that his and others whose protests against Israel dubbed “pro-terrorist, anti-Semitic anti-American activity”.

Khalil, who previously condemned anti -Semitism and since his arrest, was not charged with crime and was not associated with Hamas or another terrorist group. “At some point, it happens as a reality,” Khalil said of the accusation. “It’s very absurd.”
