The university is working with local officials for the student's release. #LawEnforcement⁠ ⁠ The incident occurred early in the morning when five federal agents accessed an off-campus residential building. Security footage showed them misleading residents with photos of a "missing child." The university president emphasized, "misrepresenting identity...is a breach of protocol." The administration is actively supporting the affected students and collaborating with the mayor and governor to resolve the situation.⁠ —⁠ ⁠ Columbia’s acting President, Claire Shipman, posted this message following the incident yesterday where Columbia student Ellie Aghayeva was taken from her apartment by DHS agents. This is what she says happened. ⁠ ⁠ She accuses the agents of breaching protocol and failing to show a warrant. More details are in the video.⁠ ⁠ Mamdani helped get Ellie released yesterday after talking to Trump. ⁠ ⁠ DHS said they were going after Ellie because they claim she’s an undocumented immigrant “whose student visa was terminated in 2016 under the Obama administration for failing to attend classes.” Her exact status isn’t publicly known at this point.⁠ ⁠ She’s a senior at Columbia and an international student studying neuroscience and political science. She’s also a social media influencer, with 100,000+ followers. ⁠ ⁠ This incident comes almost a year after Palestinian activist and Columbia student Mahmoud Khalil was detained by federal agents at his campus apartment. He was in custody for 100+ days - during which he missed the birth of his first child - and he now faces the ongoing threat of being taken back into custody and deported to Algeria or Syria.
