CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A federal grand jury in Charlotte returned a criminal indictment charging Sha Bahadur Ghaley, 42, a naturalized citizen from Bhutan, with naturalization fraud. The U.S. attorney’s office has also filed civil denaturalization actions against three individuals for violating the Immigration and Nationality Act and unlawfully and fraudulently becoming naturalized citizens of the United States. The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of North Carolina made the announcement. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services supported several of the investigations.
