A U.S. immigration court has terminated the Trump administration’s attempt to deport a Tufts University student and pro-Palestinian activist who has been critical of Israel, her lawyers said Monday.
The court terminated the government’s removal proceedings on Jan. 29, finding that the government has not met its burden in proving that Rümeysa Öztürk, a Ph.D. student from Turkey studying children’s relationship to social media, should be deported, the lawyers said.
