New York City
In response to the news of the release of Leqaa Kordia from federal detention, Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani released the following statement.
In my meeting with President Trump last month, we discussed ICE's actions at Columbia University. I asked that the federal government release Leqaa Kordia and drop the cases against four others.
I am grateful that Leqaa has been released this evening from ICE custody after more than a year in detention for speaking up for Palestinian rights.
