A judge ordered U.S. Customs and Border Protection not to deport a student they'd accused of planning to overstay his visa. They kicked him out anyway. WBUR

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials at Logan International Airport denied entry to an Iranian national who was set to study economics this spring at Northeastern University. Despite a federal court order to delay the man's removal, CBP placed him on a plane Monday night.

"We are not at liberty to discuss an individual’s processing due to the Privacy Act," a spokesperson said in a written statement. "Customs and Border Protection did not provide me any answers for why it refused entry to Shahab Dehghani, nor did it acknowledge the alarming discrepancy in moving forward with his removal despite a Federal District Court order granting Mr. Dehghani a stay in order to review the decision of CBP," Markey said in a statement released Tuesday afternoon.

Abadi's attorneys said they plan to file an additional motion on their client's behalf with Judge Allison Burroughs, who issued the stay on Abadi's removal. It is unclear what that motion will be yet.
