"Then Khan Suri had to use the plane’s bathroom. He said the guards refused to unshackle his wrists.
“They said, ‘No, you have to use it like this or do it in your trousers,’” #KhanSuri recalled of the trip, taking him to a Louisiana detention center. “They were behaving as if we were animals.”"

Georgetown scholar recalls terror and 'mockery of due process' in immigration jail
A Georgetown University scholar who was targeted for deportation by the Trump administration said he was terrified in immigration jail. Badar Khan Suri told The Associated Press of using a toilet in a cramped open cell and hugging a prayer rug as if it were his son. He said it took several days to talk to his attorneys. Khan Suri was released on bond last week as his lawsuit against the U.S. government’s deportation case continues. The Trump administration denied any inhumane treatment or lack of due process. The administration said it revoked Khan Suri’s visa because he was spreading Hamas propaganda and promoting antisemitism.
