Mohammad Zakir Hossain, 45, is from Barisal and has a US travel visa that expires in 2019, according to relatives. “After his arrival immigration officials asked him the reason for his visit,” he said. “He had already flown to the US several times on this visa. Having a valid US visa does not mean a person will be allowed entry to the country and immigration has the right to turn away anyone if there are any doubts or concerns, they told him. A prior travel ban by the Trump administration in January was also blocked by a court and was later withdrawn.
