A pro-Palestinian activist and foreign graduate student at Cornell University who sued the Trump administration to stop the deportation of those accused of anti-Semitism has been ordered to surrender to immigration authorities.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) on March 21 forwarded a message from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) instructing the student, Momodou Taal, to report to the agency’s Syracuse, New York, office to be taken into custody, according to court documents.
