Wife and the five children of Mohamed Sabry Soliman, the 45-year-old Egyptian national, who firebombed a Jewish gathering in Colorado, were taken into ICE custody for their speedy removal from the country. Soliman entered the US during the Biden administration and overstayed his visa, the Trump administration said. He told the investigators that he wanted to kill all Zionists and would do again. He planned the attack on the Jewish group that assembled every Sunday demanding the release of the Israelis in Gaza, but waited for her daughter’s graduation. According to records, Soliman was authorized to stay through February 2, 2023 but he never left. On September 9, 2022, he filed a claim with the US Citizenship and Immigration Services. On March 29, 2023, he was granted work authorization which was valid through March this year.
What we know about Soliman’s family
Soliman’s daughter for whose graduation the anti-Semitic attack did not take place earlier, as Soliman claimed, graduated from Thomas Maclaren State Charter School in Colorado Springs. According to reports, she came to the US with her father two years ago and is also probably an illegal alien. Trump-aide Laura Loomer said that a Colorado newspaper did a profile piece on his daughter, Habiba Soliman, for attending the school in hijab. According to the article, she described in her scholarship application how her family had immigrated to the US after living in Kuwait, noting that her father had undergone a “difficult surgery” when she was young “that restored his ability to walk.” The girl said the incident inspired her to pursue medical school – a dream that would have been impossible in Kuwait but within reach in America.Police said after Soliman’s arrest, his family members cooperated with the investigation. They were not privy to Soliman’s plan.
