Woman, Her 5 Children Released From Longest ICE Detention of a Family ...
U.S. District Judge Fred Biery said the family can leave after more than 10 months in detention, with bond already set at $15,000.
- On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Fred Biery signed a court order to release Hayam El Gamal and her five children from the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Texas after 10 months in detention.
- Federal authorities detained the family in June 2025 following the arrest of ex-husband Mohamed Sabry Soliman, who faced charges for a firebombing attack in Boulder, Colorado.
- Attorneys documented serious health issues, including El Gamal's "fluid around the heart" and untreated depression among the children, citing violations of the Flores Settlement Agreement's 20-day maximum detention limit.
- A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson condemned the ruling, calling Biery an "activist judge" "releasing this terrorist's family onto American streets," while attorney Eric Lee confirmed the family must wear electronic monitoring.
- The decision follows a successful third habeas petition argued in San Antonio, though attorney Chris Godshall-Bennett reported that Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials had yet to speak with the legal team regarding immediate implementation.
