The Seattle Times is reporting that a former National Guard soldier is facing removal from the United States. The soldier, Muhammad Zahid Chaudhry, attempted to obtain citizenship but was denied after he disclosed that he had previously pleaded guilty to certain misdemeanors in Australia nearly fifteen years ago. The government claims that Mr. Chaudhry failed to disclose the misdemeanors on a previous visa that he used to enter the country.
Now that Mr. Chaudhry has been denied citizenship, he faces possible removal from the United States.
