Philadelphia – Oct. 21. Dozens of pro-Palestine activists and other supporters of Mahmoud Khalil filled the courtroom and an overflow room today, while others rallied outside the federal court here. Khalil, a Columbia University graduate and Palestinian activist, appeared before a hearing of the U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals to determine if he would be returned to custody or remain free. No decision was made at today’s hearing.

Khalil is a legal resident and green card holder. He was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) last March 8 in New York City.
