Video Shows Immigration Agents Refused to ID Themselves During Mahmoud Khalil Arrest
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Video has emerged showing the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil last Saturday by
plainclothes officers who did not identify themselves. The video was
filmed by his 8-month-pregnant wife Noor Abdalla, whose voice you are
hearing in this clip.

Noor Abdalla: "Can you - can you please specify what agency is taking
him, please? Excuse me. They're - nobody - they're not talking to me. I
don't know. Excuse me, the lawyer would like to speak to somebody. Oh my
god, they're literally running away from me."

On Friday, Khalil's legal team filed a motion seeking his release on
bail.
