“Detained Columbia University protester Mahmoud Khalil hid his ties to the controversial United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees on his visa application, the feds have alleged. Lawyers for the Department of Justice lodged new accusations against the anti-Israel campus protest leader in court papers over the weekend, arguing that they should be grounds for his deportation. Khalil — a green-card holder who was nabbed by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in New York on March 8 — allegedly fraudulently applied to change his immigration status without disclosing his ‘membership in certain organizations,’ the feds said. Among those organizations was the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, known as UNRWA …. Khalil was a political affairs officer with UNRWA from June through November 2023.” (03/24/25)
