He has been living in the USA for 30 years, a chemist on the verge of a new discovery that could save millions of lives and discovery of new medicine?

This is the statement from ICE:

"Syed Ahmed Jamal, 55, from Bangladesh, initially legally entered the United States in July 1998 on a temporary nonimmigrant visa. After he overstayed that visa, a federal immigration judge allowed him voluntary departure until Aug. 26, 2002. He abided the judge’s order and departed for Bangladesh on July 24, 2002. Three months later, Jamal legally re-entered the United States on Oct. 25, 2002, on a temporary nonimmigrant visa. He again overstayed his visa, and a federal immigration judge allowed him voluntary departure until Oct. 26, 2011. However, Jamal violated the judge’s order and failed to depart the United States, and the voluntary departure order instead became a final order of removal (deportation).

Jamal came to ICE’s attention in September 2012 following his arrest on misdemeanor criminal charges at Johnson County (Kansas) Jail. He was taken into ICE custody Sept. 11, 2012. He was released from ICE custody on an order of supervision in November 2012. On May 21, 2013, the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) dismissed Jamal’s appeal of his removal order.

To effect this removal order, deportation officers with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested Jamal outside his residence on Jan. 24, 2018. He is currently in ICE custody pending his removal to Bangladesh."






another article says
Jamal arrived in the Kansas City area as a student in 1987, attending Rockhurst University. He earned bachelor’s degrees in biology, biochemistry and philosophy in 1997, before earning his master’s degree in pharmaceutical sciences from the University of Missouri-Kansas City in 2001.

When the Journal-World interviewed him in March 2017, Jamal had put aside his doctoral studies at the University of Kansas, and was working as a research scientist at his brother’s startup company, Jives Biotech, in addition to teaching at area colleges. His family worries that his current research, interrupted by his imprisonment, may go unpublished if he is sent back to Bangladesh.

"If you remain in the United States longer than authorized, you may be barred from returning and/or you may be removed (deported) from the United States."

You may apply to extend your stay if:

You were lawfully admitted into the United States with a nonimmigrant visa
Your nonimmigrant visa status remains valid
You have not committed any crimes that make you ineligible for a visa
You have not violated the conditions of your admission
Your passport is valid and will remain valid for the duration of your stay

Too much drama but sad.
If you are a resident and get convicted, it is grounds for deportation. Don't know if he was convicted.
This should come as no surprise to him.

He was not a resident, had many orders to leave and did not.
Many illegals live in fear of being picked up. He should have been well prepared for this over the years after he repeatedly violated orders.
Poor chap has been living with this half of his life in USA, since 2002.
