A video released Friday shows the moment federal immigration agents arrested Mahmoud Khalil, a prominent Palestinian activist and outspoken Columbia University graduate student whose detention has sparked waves of protest across the country.
The clip begins with at least three immigration agents confronting Khalil in the lobby of his apartment building near the Columbia campus Saturday night. The agents inform him that he is “going to be under arrest," then repeatedly order him to “turn around” and “stop resisting.”
