Biden Appointed Judge Blocks Deportation Of Boulder Terrorist’s Family

A Biden-appointed judge on Wednesday temporarily blocked immigration officials from deporting the wife and five children of Mohamed Soliman, who firebombed pro-Israel demonstrators on Sunday.

“Defendants are temporarily restrained and enjoined from removing Hayem El Gamal and her five minor children from the State of Colorado or the United States,” U.S. District Judge Gordon Gallagher wrote in the order, Fox News reported.

The temporary restraining order grants brief protection from deportation to Soliman’s wife, Hayem El Gamal, and their five children, all Egyptian nationals, after Kristi Noem’s Department of Homeland Security initially intended to use expedited removal to deport the family.

Judge Gallagher stated that “deportation without process could work irreparable harm and an order must issue without notice due to the urgency this situation presents.”

The judge’s order specifically prohibits federal immigration officials from removing Soliman’s family from either Colorado or the United States, unless the order is vacated by the court or the Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit.

Gallagher claims the order is being handled on an emergency basis due to “its urgency and an ongoing jury trial resulting in the unavailability” of the originally assigned judge, according to a footnote in the court document.

Gallagher has scheduled a hearing on the request for a temporary restraining order for June 13 at the federal courthouse in Denver, with the petitioner required to file a supporting memorandum by June 6 and defendants ordered to respond by June 11.

Soliman, 45, severely injured 12 pro-Israel demonstrators at a Boulder, Colorado rally, throwing Molotov cocktails into the Jewish crowd while yelling “Free Palestine!” and “End Zionist.” Among those injured was an 88-year-old holocaust survivor.

As The Daily Wire previously reported, Soliman and his family entered the country in August 2022.

Soliman arrived on a non-immigrant visa that expired in February of the following year, and the Egyptian national then filed an asylum claim with the Citizenship and Immigration Services. The Biden administration eventually granted Soliman work authorization until March of this year.

Fox News reports that Soliman’s wife and her five children have all also overstayed their visas, with their deportation likely complicated by a pending asylum application that had already been submitted on their behalf by Soliman before the attack.

Soliman’s family is being detained at an immigration detention center in southern Texas, where DHS is “investigating to what extent his family knew about this heinous attack.”
