Rumeysa Ozturk says she was talking to her mother on her phone shortly after she left her Massachusetts home when she was arrested and shackled.

She said she was afraid because her name, photograph and work history were published earlier this year on the website Canary Mission , which describes itself as documenting people who “promote hatred of the U.S.A. , Israel and Jews on North American college campuses’s campuses” She said at one point, after they had changed cars, she felt “sure they were going to kill me”.

A coalition of 27 Jewish groups object to Ozturk ’s arrest and detention.

The organizations say those actions violate the most basic constitutional rights, such as freedom of expression.

“The government appears to be exploiting Jewish Americans ’ legitimate concerns about antisemitism as pretext for undermining core pillars of American democracy, the rule of law,” they say.
