An American judge refuses to detention a Korean student who participated in protests against the war on Gaza – the seventh day

An American judge refused to detention immigration officials from a South Korean student studying at the University of Colombia, and she has permanent legal establishment in the United States, after her participation in protests opposing the Israeli war on Gaza.

Yunusio Chung, 21, has lived in the United States since she was seven years old, but her legal team has been informed this month to cancel her legal permanent residence status, according to the records of the US District Court of the southern region of New York.

Chung filed a lawsuit against the administration of US President Donald Trump, on Monday, to prevent its deportation.

Trump pledged to deport foreign demonstrators who protested against the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip, accusing them of “supporting Hamas” and “anti -Semitism”.

The demonstrators, some of them from Jewish groups, say that the administration mixes their criticism of Israel with their support for the rights of the Palestinians on the one hand, with anti -Semitism and supporting “Hamas” on the other hand. Human rights defenders condemned government measures.

The Ministry of Internal Security said that Chung “was involved in anxious behavior”, including when the police arrested it earlier during a protest at “Bernard College”.

Chung has not yet been arrested, but immigration officials visited her residence several times in search of her.

The court’s records showed that the American District Court Judge Naomi Reese Buckwald issued a temporary restriction against the government on Tuesday, preventing the detention of Chung.

The lawsuit filed by Chung said that the measures taken against it “are part of a wider pattern of government efforts targeting supportive votes of the Palestinians, which criticize the Israeli military attack on Gaza.”
