The former Yale student who was acquitted of rape in 2018 — but later ousted from the Ivy League institution — can sue his accuser for defamation over statements she made during a school hearing, the Connecticut Supreme Court ruled this summer.
Saifullah Khan, 30, has had a $110 million defamation lawsuit pending against the Ivy League institution since 2019. Khan has been fighting to bring his accuser, a fellow student, into the suit over a 2018 university hearing that eventually resulted in his expulsion.
Connecticut’s high court granted Khan’s request in June. The court ruled that the accuser shouldn’t receive "qualified immunity" from her school testimony that Khan raped her following a Halloween party in 2015.
Qualified immunity protects people from being sued for statements they make in judicial cases or "quasi judicial" cases.
But the high court said the university hearing wasn’t a stand-in court proceeding, since Khan wasn’t given the opportunity to cross-examine the accuser.
"For absolute immunity to apply under Connecticut law," the June decision says, "fundamental fairness requires meaningful cross-examination in proceedings like the one at issue."
During the hearing, Khan’s team listened to the woman’s testimony from a separate room and never got the opportunity to question her. The court ruling said this left his defense attorney to act as a "potted plant."
The court also said the Yale hearing couldn’t be considered quasi-judicial because it didn’t make the woman testify under oath and didn’t provide Khan’s side with a transcript of the testimony.
Khan, a native of Afghanistan, started attending the school on a full scholarship in 2012 and majored in neuroscience.
His education was completely derailed after the rape allegations in which the 21-year-old acquaintance claimed that he took advantage of her when she was extremely drunk following an off-campus Halloween costume party.
At trial, Khan’s lawyers argued the encounter was consensual.
Khan was suspended from classes amid the allegations and then returned to school after his 2018 acquittal — despite widespread opposition to his return, including a petition with 78,000 signatures.
He was ultimately kicked out of the school in 2019.

[Regnum] The Russian military has freed Chadian soldiers captured by Islamic militants. The Russian Ministry of Defense reported this on May 28.
“In Central Africa, Russian military personnel conducted a joint operation with colleagues from the Republic of Chad to free Chadian military personnel from captivity by militants of illegal armed groups,” the statement says.
The department clarified that nine months ago, Islamic militants captured 21 members of the Chadian armed forces. This happened while clearing mines at the airport in the Tibesti region.

It is noted that the terrorists kept prisoners in their camp in inhumane conditions and subjected them to torture.
The Ministry of Defense added that all prisoners were taken to a temporary base, where Russian doctors provided them with the necessary assistance and carried out operations to remove fragments. After that, under the control of Russian military personnel, they were evacuated to their homeland.
The Minister of Defense of Chad thanked Russia for the operation carried out to free the military personnel. He noted that Russia has always been a reliable partner of African countries, unlike France, Britain and the United States, which received only benefits from Africans.
As Regnum reported, the results of the presidential elections were announced in Chad. The winner was determined in the first round of voting. He became the current transitional president, Mahamat Idriss Deby, who received 61.03% of the votes.
In April, the Chadian government sent a letter to the United States of America regulating the presence of American military personnel in the country. The letter did not contain a direct demand for US troops to leave Chad, but the authorities of the African country demanded that the US military leave the base in N'Djamena.
In January 2024, Russian President Vladimir Putin, at a meeting with the transitional president of the African republic, Mahamat Idriss Déby in Moscow, said that Russia was closely monitoring what was happening in Chad.

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Moments after illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, a migrant from Turkey expressed bewilderment over how easy it was to enter and warned 'killers and psychopaths' could easily cross into America too.
The astonishing interview from Fox News highlights how even migrants are afraid of the loose vetting processes at the border.
'In fact, American people is right, completely true. Who comes into this country?' the migrant told Fox News' Bill Melugin.
'They don't know. Whether okay, I'm good, but how if they're not good how are they a killer psychopath else? No guarantee of that why? Like, like no security, no security check. No background check.'
He went on to confirm that he paid $10,000 to Mexican cartels to be shepherded into the country and that he is very concerned about who is entering the U.S.
The jaw-dropping interview, which was shot in Jacumba Hot Springs, California, shows how the area has become the new ground zero for migrants seeking to enter unlawfully.
The Turkish migrant was not alone, though, and was accompanied by a number of his fellow countrymen.
According to the report, the Turkish migrants were denied visas to legally enter the U.S. multiple times - and so they opted to cross illegally instead.
The migrant further expressed concern saying, 'people are not normal' and that having a border where unvetted individuals can cross means the American people are 'right' to be worried.
Recently at the same crossing spot migrants from Pakistan, India, Iran, Jordan, Bangladesh and China have all opted to cross in the California town.
San Diego border sees migrants from over 170 countries
High number of Chinese migrants arriving in Southern California
Shocking new border statistics have revealed the surprising countries spawning an influx of migrants to the US.
While Chinese migrants continue to dominate the list, thousands are also pouring in from India, Vietnam, Turkey, Uzebakistan and the West African nation of Mauritania.
About 62% of all Chinese migrants arriving at America's borders are entering the country through San Diego, according to US Border Patrol statistics.
At least 48,501 Chinese migrants have crossed into the US illegally- mostly surrendering to Border Patrol with the hopes of seeking asylum- from Oct. 1 through April.
'It’s an 8,600% increase over all of fiscal year 2021, when just 342 Chinese nationals crossed illegally - across the entire southern border,' Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin tweeted.
Of those, 27,135 entered the country either in San Diego or in the area east of the city, which is all considered the San Diego sector by the Border Patrol.
On Saturday alone, at least 118 Chinese citizens illegally cross into the region, Fox News reported.
While most of the border sees most of its migrants from countries like Mexico and Venezuela, the area near San Diego attracts migrants from around the world.
Since the start of the fiscal year, more than 8,900 migrants from India have arrived there.
Another 7,800 from Turkey, 5,600 from 5,600+ Guinea and 4,400 from Mauritania have also entered the country there.
'There is now an orchestrated, well organized cartel smuggling operation of Chinese into Southern California,' Melugin stated.
As DailyMail.com was first to report, Chinese migrants are being smuggled into the US with the help of Chinese gangs known as 'snakeheads' who are operating in synchrony with Mexican cartels.
Asian criminal organizations have been working in Mexico for many year in drug trade and money laundering, but have recently moved into human trafficking business as Chinese migrants have started showing up at the border, cartel expert Robert Almonte told DailyMail.com.
'The Chinese (smugglers) just can't go over there and cut the Mexican cartels out - that just doesn't happen. They've got to be paying the Mexican cartel some kind of a percentage, quota or tax,' he said.
The global arrivals in Southern California helped to propel the San Diego sector as the busiest in the nation.
At least 37,370 migrants entered the US through the San Diego sector, which includes all of Southern California except for El Centro on the Arizona state line, according to the US Border Patrol.
In April, the San Diego region surpassed Tucson, which had been the nation's busiest, and fell to second with 31,219 border encounters.
El Paso sector, which includes the West Texas city and all of New Mexico, rose to third with 30,393.
San Diego's rise as the number one border hot spot had been expected, as the area had been getting bombarded with as many as 6,000-8,000 border crossers a week in the last few months.
'Unfortunately, I'm not surprised,' San Diego County Commissioner Jim Desmond told DailyMail.com last month.
'Texas is clamping down and other areas are clamping down. Here in California, they're allowed to walk in unimpeded. They're going to follow the path of least resistance, and the least resistance is in California.'
A $13 billion business of trafficking humans from Mexico into the US has been described as whac-a-mole by border experts- where one area flares up as others quiet down.
Migrants who are arrested in San Diego sector are vetted by US Border Patrol are being released onto the streets.
The county migrant shelter closed a few months back, after local leaders decided they did not want to the $18 million dollars a year to keep running it.
However, the county has been promised $20 million by the Biden to open up a shelter in the coming weeks.
'It was costing us, at that point in time, about $1.5 million a month to basically be their travel agent. Border Patrol was their Uber, bringing them to those drop off areas, and then we were their travel agent,' Desmond quipped.
Without the local shelter, migrants are either being let loose at a transit station or at the airport by the feds.
Migrants have been known to spend as many as five days crashing at the airport while they wait for a flight out of town, Desmond added.
Like other border communities across the country, San Diego's airport does not add extra flights simply because there's a spike in migrant crossings.
Often times, there aren't available seat to fly out or migrants, with limited means, wait a day or two until ticket prices drop and they can afford to travel to their final destination.

Mayorkas is certainly a traitor. It will take rooting out the other traitors in the Senate and House to address immigration legislatively. Trump needs to go the executive order route initially. Everything going through our legislature currently morphs into amnesty and Hamas/Ukraine funding in the process

Looked to me like everyone in that nighttime line was sizing him up.
[GEO.TV] Pakistain Navy Ship (PNS) Aslat on Tuesday apprehended a vessel carrying huge cache of narcotics in the north Arabian Sea during a regional maritime security patrol, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Tuesday.
As per the military's media wing, the seized drugs were worth thousands of dollars in the international market.
A brief statement released by the ISPR said that the successful operation against drug smuggling was the result of effective surveillance at sea by Pakistain Navy.
"Naval warships of Pakistain Navy regularly perform duties on regional maritime security [atrol to prevent drug smuggling, piracy and human trafficking at sea," it added.

Somebody needs to get a real, fake news writer experienced in naval interdiction and global markets.
[GEO.TV] The Israeli military denied conducting a strike in al-Mawasi in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... on Tuesday following reports that as many as 21 Paleostinians were killed in an evacuation zone west of the city of Rafah.
"Contrary to the reports from the last few hours, the IDF (Israel Defence Forces) did not strike in the Humanitarian Area in al-Mawasi," the military said in a statement.
