Judge Lifts Domestic Travel Restrictions on Columbia Student Activist Mohsen Mahdawi
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A judge has lifted all domestic travel restrictions on Columbia
University Palestinian activist Mohsen Mahdawi. He's reportedly the
first student activist targeted by ICE to be granted such freedoms.
Mahdawi was arrested by federal immigration agents in April and detained
in Vermont for over two weeks.
