Judge Halts Deportation of Mohamed Sabry Soliman Accused of Firebombing Attack in Boulder, Colorado
A judge in the United States has stopped the deportation of Mohamed Sabry Soliman, who is accused of carrying out a firebombing attack on pro-Israeli demonstrators in Boulder, Colorado. The judge granted a request from Soliman's family to halt the deportation proceedings for his wife and five children. The Department of Homeland Security confirmed that Soliman's family members were arrested by ICE agents and are facing "expedited removal" proceedings.
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem mentioned that the agency is investigating whether Soliman's family had prior knowledge of his intentions before the attack. While the family members have not been charged in the incident, Soliman himself is facing federal hate crime charges and 16 state charges of attempted murder. The attack, which occurred during a "Run For Their Lives" event, resulted in injuries to 15 people and a dog.
Soliman used a makeshift flamethrower and Molotov cocktails during the attack on the peaceful demonstrators advocating for the release of Israeli hostages held by Hamas. Noem has assured that Soliman will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. The case continues to develop as investigations unfold.
