US family demands pro-Palestine protester’s release after hospitalisation

AI Summary
Leqaa Kordia, a pro-Palestine protester detained for nearly a year, was hospitalized from a Texas immigration detention center last week, prompting her family to demand her release. The family and her legal team report being denied information about her condition and whereabouts for over 12 hours, causing significant distress. Kordia, who participated in pro-Palestine demonstrations at Columbia University in 2024, remains the only protester still detained. Amnesty International has joined calls for her release, stating that she is being unfairly targeted for exercising her rights to free speech and protest. Kordia has since been released from the hospital after suffering a seizure, but her family says she remains sick.
