While on a speaking tour of the US over the weekend, Hamdi was detained by ICE officers and his visa was revoked, a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Tricia McLaughlin announced on X. Hamdi is in ICE custody pending his removal from the country, she added.
The State Department and DHS allege that Hamdi supports terrorism and poses a threat to national security, while an advocacy group argues he is being politically targeted.
