Khizr Khan is the father of Humayun Khan, who died serving in the U.S. Army in 2004. The announcement on Monday coincided with President Trump's rewritten order to temporarily ban entry of citizens from six Muslim-majority nations to the United States. On Tuesday, Bob Ramsay, who runs Ramsay Talks, said he didn't know the specifics of Khan's predicament. It is unclear whether Khan has previously traveled outside the United States since he was naturalized. As a general rule, the United States cannot prevent passport-holding citizens from traveling if they have not been charged with a crime.
