Tarek Maaroufi


Tarek Maaroufi, of the Tunisian Combat Group, was sentenced to six years in prison for his role in a Brussels-based fake passport ring that supplied fake Belgian passports to the men who assassinated former Afghan Northern Alliance commander Ahmed Shah Massoud two days before the September 11 attacks.
On 26 January 2009 he lost his Belgian nationality due to three terrorism convictions. He is the first Belgian since World War II who lost his nationality due to misconduct.
