PoliticsAfghan woman deported from US in first use of ‘alien terrorist’ court

Nazira Haji Zada, an Afghan legal permanent resident in Texas, has been deported after choosing not to continue challenging her case before the Alien Terrorist Removal Court, which had never previously heard a case. She was never charged with a crime, but prosecutors linked her to relatives convicted in a planned Islamic State-inspired mass shooting plot. Her lawyers said withholding the evidence violated due process.
