Marco Rubio announces ICE has arrested the niece and grandniece of deceased Iranian General Qassem Soleimani
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announces ICE has arrested the niece and grandniece of deceased Iranian General Qassem Soleimani after Rubio terminated their legal status to be in the U.S.
“Until recently, Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter were green card holders living in lavishly in the United States.
Afshar is the niece of deceased Iranian Major General Qasem Soleimani. She is also an outspoken supporter of the Iranian regime who celebrated attacks on Americans and referred to our country as the “Great Satan.”
This week, I terminated both Afshar and her daughter’s legal status and they are now in ICE custody, pending removal from the United States.
The Trump Administration will not allow our country to become a home for foreign nationals who support anti-American terrorist regimes.”
