CAIR National has confirmed that Hamdi is currently still in ICE custody pending removal from the U.S. & their attorneys and partners are in the process of challenging this egregious action by the U.S. government against him.
We back CAIR National's call for the immediate release of Sami Hamdi.

The attempt to deport Hamdi, a British Muslim journalist and political commentator, is directly due to his criticism of the Israeli government for its genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza.

In another authoritarian, anti-Palestinian & Islamophobic act that undermines free speech and targets Muslim activists for speaking out in support of Palestinians, U.S. immigration officials have detained and revoked the visa of Sami Hamdi at San Francisco Internationa Airport.
