The Attorneys of a 22-year-old Palestinian man say their client was detained by immigration authorities at Houston’s Bush Intercontinental Airport for nine days.

According to a statement from the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Muhanad J. M. Alshrouf obtained a U.S. immigrant visa before flying to Houston to visit his father on a flight from Dubai on July 5.

Alshrouf reportedly spent days in a secondary screening room at the airport before being released on the evening of July 14. He was not allowed to obtain legal counsel, a change of clothes, or proper food, and authorities gave no reason for his release.
