Judge rules pro-Palestinian student and permanent US resident cannot be detained

A federal judge in California has ruled that a pro-Palestinian student and permanent U.S. resident, who was detained by immigration authorities, cannot be held in custody. The student, identified as a 21-year-old from the University of California, Berkeley, was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) following his participation in a protest. The judge's decision was based on the argument that the student's detention was retaliatory and violated his First Amendment rights to free speech. The ruling highlights concerns over the targeting of individuals based on their political expressions, particularly those supporting Palestinian causes, and underscores the ongoing debate about the balance between national security and civil liberties.
