A US federal judge stripped Egyptian native and convicted jihadist Khaled Abu Al-Dahab of his American citizenship for lying to immigration officials while applying for the citizenship, the Associated Press reports. Abu Al-Dahab served a 15-year prison sentence in Egypt for belonging to a terrorist organization and was released in 2011. This comes as a lawsuit was filed in the Egyptian Administrative Court to strip Egyptian-American activist Aya Hijazy of her Egyptian citizenship, Al Masry Al Youm reports.
