Pakistani Native Involved in Terror Plot May Lose U.S. Citizenship

The Department of Justice is seeking to strip convicted terrorist Iyman Faris, born in Pakistan, of his citizenship. So reports Syracuse.com.

Faris is in prison for his role in plotting to destroy the Brooklyn Bridge. 

The motion, which was filed in U.S. District Court in southern Illinois, began "a revocation process that is likely to take years," and alleges Faris lied on immigration paperwork. It also states his terrorist affiliations demonstrate "a lack of commitment to the U.S. Constitution,"as part of the impetus to strip his citizenship. He is scheduled for release from prison on Dec. 23, 2020.
