Oak Lawn Man Among Those Detained at O'Hare Following Trump Order: Reports

An Oak Lawn man returning from his son’s wedding in Saudi Arabia on Saturday is believed to be among those detained at O’Hare International Airport.

At many as 14 people were held at the airport following an executive order signed by President Donald Trump late Friday afternoon temporarily banning refugees from predominantly Islamic countries for 120 days entry into the United States.

The detainees were released late evening after a federal judge in New York issued an injunction putting a temporary stay on Trump's Muslim ban.

Syrian refugees are also barred indefinitely, and citizens from seven predominantly Muslim countries are blocked from entering the United States for 90 days. O’Hare’s Terminal 5, which services arriving and departing international flights, drew hundreds of protesters to the terminal on Saturday opposing the president’s refugee ban.

Nasser Mused, 36, told the Chicago Tribune that he believes his father is being held at O’Hare because of the president’s executive order. Nasser said his 67-year-old father Abdulsalam Mused left in December to attend his son’s wedding in Saudi Arabia.

Mused has received no texts or calls from his father after his plane was to have landed Saturday. The son said his father has an American green card and a passport from Yemen. His father did everything “right” and was seeking citizenship in the United States. For the first time Nasser said he feels singled out.

"It's indescribable," he told the Tribune. "I've never felt that before. Never in my life."

The Department of Homeland Security said the president’s executive order also applies to citizens who hold American green cards from seven majority Muslim countries of Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.

Immigration attorneys are lending their services pro bono to family and friends of the detained. A couple and their child have reportedly been released after being held for several hours, reports said.

As of Saturday, a federal judge in New York issued an emergency stay against Trump's Muslim ban.
