In an amended petition for #HabeasCorpus, #RümeysaÖztürk's attorneys—now including the #ACLU—describe her arrest & detention as "part of a concerted & systemic effort by #Trump administration officials to #punish #students & others identified with pro-#Palestine activism."

New details of #RümeysaÖztürk's #StateSponsoredAbduction:
A rep of the Turkish consulate went looking for Öztürk at an #ICE office in suburban Massachusetts. Her lawyer called hospitals, worried she might have had a dangerous #asthma attack. [anxiety can induce attacks & no doubt they took her inhaler] & of course, she did have an attack & didn’t have her medication.
#RümeysaÖztürk's attorneys include in their filing that her arrest & detention — without any notice — is not a necessary or usual part of #visa revocation but an experience "designed to #silence her, #punish her for her #speech, & ensure that other #students will be chilled from expressing pro-#Palestinian viewpoints."
#RümeysaÖztürk's filing contains a paragraph each on the similar treatment of #RanjaniSrinivasan, #MahmoudKahlil, #YunseoChung, #BadarKhanSuri, & #MomodouTaal.
