U.S. court revokes citizenship of Bosnia war crimes suspect

District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee has revoked the citizenship of Sead Miljkovic, also known as Sead Dukic, in an order entered on July 17. The court found that he illegally procured U.S. citizenship by hiding his true identity and by giving false testimony to government officials.

According to the source, Miljkovic came to the United States in 1996 and naturalized as a U.S. citizen in 2007. The court concluded he lacked the required good moral character to naturalize.

The filing says Miljkovic was a former member of the security forces of the short-lived Autonomous Province of Western Bosnia, or APZB. It also states that he was subject to an arrest warrant issued by a court in Bosnia for war crimes against civilians when the U.S. government granted him naturalized citizenship.
