Columbia University student Halil, who was the driving force behind many anti-Israel protests at the school's Manhattan campus after the October 7, 2023 massacre in Israel, was acquired by US immigrants and customs enforcement agents on March 8 in a Columbia-owned apartment building and later transferred to a Louisiana detention facility.

He is now a poster boy who has President Donald Trump crack down on anti-Semitic University protesters.
