British Muslim journalist Sami Hamdi is set to be released from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody.
“The government has agreed to release Sami,” the family said in a statement posted on social media Monday. “He will be able to return home soon insha’Allah.”
The London-based journalist and commentator was detained in San Francisco two weeks ago while on a US speaking tour. Muslim advocacy groups say it was in retaliation for his criticism of Israel’s actions in the Palestinian territories. On Monday, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said Hamdi has opted to accept an offer to leave the US voluntarily.
