A federal investigation led by Trump aims to strip Ilhan Omar of her citizenship.
Translated by Qiyas from سرمد — Original source
U.S. officials and individuals with knowledge of the matter said that the federal investigation led by the Donald Trump administration into Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar aims to build a case to strip her of her U.S. citizenship and ultimately deport her, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The investigation, which is pursuing multiple lines of inquiry, focuses at least in part on how Omar obtained citizenship after arriving in the United States from Somalia decades ago. Some individuals with knowledge of the probe said investigators are concentrating on the representative herself and on information provided by her late father to secure citizenship.
Nor Omar Mohamed brought his daughter and other family members to the United States from a refugee camp in Kenya in 1995.
The Washington Post cited three sources as saying the investigation centers on allegations that Omar or her late father may have provided false information in immigration documents to obtain legal status and, subsequently, U.S. citizenship.
The immigration case revolves around whether Ilhan Omar or her father altered her age in her citizenship application to show that she was 17 years old rather than 18, according to individuals with knowledge of the investigation.
