DENVER -- A 23-year-old Pakistani citizen who has been detained by immigration authorities since shortly after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks was sentenced Friday to time served.
Armoghan Absar Rizvi pleaded guilty to falsely claiming U.S. citizenship on a job application. His attorney said he is likely to be deported next week.
