特朗普政府近日启动了一个长期处于休眠状态的反恐法院,以寻求遣返阿富汗妇女纳齐拉·哈吉·扎达[1]。该法院成立于1996年,本月首次收到请愿书[1]。扎达未被控任何犯罪,于周二在得克萨斯州沃斯堡住所被FBI逮捕[1]。
根据FBI备忘录,扎达被指为ISIS支持者,其子女被迫效忠该恐怖组织[1]。她是两名阿富汗男子的母亲和岳母,这两人因参与2024年选举日恐袭阴谋在俄克拉荷马州被定罪[1]。其子阿卜杜拉·哈吉·扎达于11月被判处15年监禁[1]。
在周四的公开听证会上,辩护律师主张这一遣返程序违反了当事人的宪法权利,但法官驳回了驳回诉讼的请求[1]。法官允许律师在案件进行过程中重新提出相关异议[1]。
The Trump administration has activated a specialized court that has remained unused for 30 years to pursue the deportation of Nazira Haji Zada, an Afghan woman arrested this week in Texas [1]. The Alien Terrorist Removal Court, established in 1996, received its first petition this month and held its initial public hearing on Thursday [1]. During the proceedings, defense attorneys challenged the constitutionality of the process and sought dismissal of the case, but the judge rejected the motion to throw out the lawsuit while allowing lawyers to raise constitutional objections again as the case proceeds [1].
Zada was arrested Tuesday at her home in Fort Worth by the FBI and has not been charged with any crime [1]. According to an FBI memo, she is suspected of being an ISIS sympathizer whose children were coerced into pledging allegiance to the terrorist organization [1]. Zada is the mother and mother-in-law of two Afghan men who were convicted in Oklahoma in connection with an Election Day 2024 attack plot; her son Abdullah Haji Zada received a 15-year prison sentence in November [1].
