A South African woman picked up in Texas almost 10 days ago may turn out to be a key, high level al-Qaida operative. Her name is Farida Goolam Mohamed Ahmed. She was stopped at McAllen Miller International Airport on July 19th headed to New York.

Eddie Flores of the U.S. Border Patrol office in McAllen, Texas tells FederalNewsRadio.com that a review of her papers raised some concerns. “In looking at her documents, they did not find any entry documents in her passport where she was legally admitted into the United States,” says Flores.
