Dr. Muhammad Awaisi, a Pontiac, Michigan-based physician was convicted by a federal jury Wednesday of five charges related to creating fraudulent medical documents to help immigrants get their U.S. citizenship.
The evidence in the case showed Awaisi conspired with a local psychologist named Firoza Van Horn to create the medical documents.
Those documents were designed to benefit citizenship applicants who wanted medical waivers to fulfill a requirement that allows them to bypass a requirement that demonstrates they have knowledge of the English language and pass the citizenship test.
