What we know about the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil

Mahmoud Khalil, a permanent resident of the Palestinians who is eligible for permanent legal status in the US, describes himself as a “political prisoner.” Khalil claims that his arrest stems from exercising his right to free speech in his first statement since his arrest. The pro-Palestine demonstrations at Columbia University were led by Khalil. Khalil’s case and its wider implications are explained by Al Jazeera’s @Hind Touissate.
