Letitia James, the New York attorney general, defended the former Columbia University student, whom federal agents arrested on Saturday night for allegedly supporting Hamas and who reportedly let anti-Israel protests on the Ivy League campus.
“I am extremely concerned about the arrest and detention of
Mahmoud Khalil, an advocate and legal permanent resident of Palestinian
descent,” James stated on Monday.
She added that her office “is monitoring the situation” and
has been in contact with Khalil’s lawyer.
