A Maryland Heights, Missouri man who helped U.S. forces fight the Taliban was detained by ICE and FBI agents outside his home as he left for a morning run, and is being held at the Ste. Genevieve County Detention Center. He has lived legally in the U.S. since 2014 on a Special Immigrant Visa and holds a green card, and has since married, had children, earned multiple degrees, and worked as a scientist while hoping to become a doctor. ICE alleges he provided material support to a terrorist organization tied to al-Qaida and misrepresented facts on a 2019 immigration form, which he denies, saying his rights as a permanent resident are being violated.
