Overview

  • ICE detained Ayman Soliman on July 9, weeks after his asylum status was officially revoked in June.
  • His 2018 asylum grant was rescinded under the Biden administration after the FBI flagged him on its terror watchlist.
  • Soliman has sued federal agencies, claiming a fingerprint mismatch on the terror-screening database and seeking records under FOIA.
  • A Supreme Court ruling now allows deportation to third-party nations if a migrant’s country of origin will not accept them.
  • Supporters, citing his work as a hospital chaplain in Cincinnati and pending family migration petitions, warn of humanitarian risks.
