17 Senators Call for Release of HMS Researcher Kseniia Petrova | News | The Harvard Crimson (2025-04-01)
https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2025/4/1/senators-demand-detained-researcher-release/
———“A group of 17 U.S. senators demanded the release of Harvard Medical School researcher Kseniia Petrova, who was detained in Boston Logan Airport after a personal trip to France in February, in a Monday letter.”
“At the time of her arrest on Feb. 16, Petrova was told that she could either return to France and reapply for a visa or face deportation to Russia, with a five-year ban on returning to the U.S.
“Petrova chose to return to France, but CBP officers detained her after she voiced her fear of political persecution in Russia. She is currently being held in an ICE facility in Louisiana.”
“Senators demanded that Petrova be released ahead of her May 7 preliminary hearing, ‘absent evidence that Petrova is a flight risk or a danger to the community.’”
