HOUSTON (Reuters) - A South African woman whose arrest in Texas touched off warnings of terrorist incursions from the U.S. South pleaded guilty on Monday to charges she was an illegal immigrant.
Farida Goolam Mahomed Ahmed, 48, faces up to 15 years in prison after admitting to U.S. District Judge Kenneth Hoyt she entered the country illegally, lied to federal agents and doctored her passport.
She has been in custody without bail since July 19, when she was seized at the airport in McAllen, Texas, for not having a visa.
