Tufts University doctoral student Rümeysa Öztürk, detained by plainclothes ICE agents in a chilling scene last month, has experienced multiple health emergencies and had her hijab removed by a staff member, she said in a Thursday court document.
In a six-page declaration filed by the ACLU and Öztürk's lawyers, the student said she has had four separate asthma attacks in federal custody which were largely ignored, with one nurse telling Öztürk that her asthma was “all in my mind.”
