The University of Oklahoma campus in Norman, Oklahoma, has announced the release of Vahid Abedini, a professor of history. Abedini was detained by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on June 23, 2023, following allegations of unlawful surveillance of individuals. He was subsequently released after ICE concluded its investigation. The university stated he is free to return to campus and is cooperating with authorities. His release does not address the ongoing legal proceedings related to the alleged violations.
