The family of Colorado terror suspect Mohamed Sabry Soliman won’t be tossed from the United States for now after a Biden-appointed judge slammed the brakes on their imminent deportation Wednesday.
Soliman’s wife, Hayam Salah Alsaid Ahmed Elgamal, 41, their daughter Habiba Mohamed Sabry Farag Soliman, 18, two more minor daughters and two minor sons were all detained and facing a swift deportation — before Judge Gordon Gallagher stepped in.
“Defendants SHALL NOT REMOVE Hayem El Gamal and her five children from … the United States unless and until this Court or Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit vacates this Order,” Gallagher, a Biden-appointed judge, said in his ruling obtained by Fox News.

The family first reached the United States from Egypt in August 2022, but were only allowed to stay until February 2023, the Department of Homeland Security said Wednesday.
Soliman, 45, filed for asylum on September 29, 2022, and listed his wife and their five children as dependents in Denver, according to the department.
The family was detained by ICE Tuesday and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem vowed authorities would probe if any of them knew about Soliman’s plan to allegedly throw homemade flamethrowers and Molotov cocktails in the antisemitic attack that injured 12 people in Boulder.
