A Brownsville man pleaded not guilty Wednesday to accusations he lied during his naturalization application, including failing to disclose that he was a member of a Palestinian organization labeled as a terrorist group by the United States.

George Zahi Rafidi, 42, is charged in a superseding March 5 indictment with attempted procurement of citizenship contrary to law; use of an immigration document procured by false statement or fraud; false statement under oath in a matter relating to naturalization; two counts of false statement of representation; and false statement on a loan and credit application

In 2000, Rafidi traveled to the U.S. on a tourist visa and requested asylum. He did not disclose his affiliation to a terrorist organization and instead stated he was politically active in Palestine, authorities say. When he obtained his permanent residency, Rafidi lied to authorities about his terrorist ties and the fact that he had two arrests in Texas for theft. In 2009, U.S. Customs and Border Protection arrested Rafidi in Brownsville after he tried to leave the country with almost $30,000 cash.

In 2018, federal authorities reviewed Rafidi’s citizenship application and discovered he lied in the federal documents by omitting his terrorist affiliations and obtained a warrant for his arrest. In April 2018, Rafidi pleaded guilty to the charges and remains in jail awaiting sentence.
