A Georgetown University researcher who says he has been illegally targeted for deportation amid the Trump administration’s crackdown on campus activism must have his case heard in Virginia as he fights to stay in the United States, a federal judge ruled Tuesday.
U.S. District Judge Patricia Tolliver Giles is likely to order immigration officials to return Badar Khan Suri from Texas as she continues to consider the legal merits of his case. The researcher was arrested March 17 as he arrived at his Arlington County home and was sent to an immigration facility southwest of Dallas, where he has been held for more than a month.
