US launches record denaturalisation push to strip 25 naturalised citizens

The Justice Department filed 25 complaints seeking to revoke the U.S. citizenship of naturalised Americans in what it says is the largest coordinated denaturalisation effort in U.S. history, including Narinder Singh who allegedly used fraudulent identities to obtain citizenship in 2008. The cases accuse fraud, concealment of criminal histories, and false statements during naturalisation, potentially stripping citizenship and triggering deportation if courts rule in the government's favor. The filings span 17 countries and bring the total denaturalisation actions to 123, with the DOJ stressing that citizenship must be earned honestly and that more actions could follow.
