The anti-American niece of slain Iranian Major General Qasem Soleimani was granted a green card under the Biden administration after obtaining asylum in the United States, the Department of Homeland Security told Fox News.
Hamideh Soleimani Afshar, who authorities say was enjoying a lavish lifestyle in Los Angeles, entered the United States in June 2015 on a tourist visa and was granted asylum in 2019 before becoming a lawful permanent resident in 2021, according to DHS.
She was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Los Angeles on April 3 along with her daughter.
