Ranjani Srinivasan’s student visa was revoked by U.S. immigration authorities. That was just the start of her odyssey.

Srinivasan’s situation is part of a broader crackdown by the Trump administration on pro-Palestinian demonstrators through the use of federal immigration powers. She is one of several noncitizens at Columbia University who have been targeted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in recent days.

Days after federal immigration agents showed up to her apartment prompting her to leave the country out of fear she would be taken into custody, Ranjani Srinivasan is disputing the Trump administration’s account of her story.

The Department of Homeland Security arrested a second student involved in the protests at Columbia University.
