Tufts University doctoral student Rümeysa Öztürk was released from a Louisiana detention center Friday, six weeks after masked federal agents took her into custody amid the Trump administration’s effort to deport noncitizens who have protested against the war in Gaza.

Ozturk is free to return to her home in Massachusetts ... because, frankly, I don’t find that she poses any risk of flight,” the judge ruled.

A federal judge freed a Turkish graduate student on bail while she fights possible deportation over the Trump administration’s claims of antisemitism in an op-ed she helped write.
