Afghan national arrested over alleged bomb threat in Texas: DHS

Mohammad Dawood Alokozay faces state and federal terroristic threat charges after posting a TikTok video showing bomb assembly and threats targeting Fort Worth, Texas.

  • On Dec 02, 2025, Mohammad Dawood Alokozay, 30, Afghan national, was charged in the Northern District of Texas for transmitting a threat tied to a Nov. 23 video; he was arrested Nov. 25 and is held at Tarrant County Corrections Center.
  • Records indicate Mohammad Dawood Alokozay entered the U.S. under Operation Allies Welcome and was admitted as a lawful permanent resident in September 2022, while the complaint alleges he praised the Taliban and threatened a suicide attack including targeting `infidels`.
  • Investigators say FBI Dallas Field Office used facial recognition and public tip reporters to identify and arrest Alokozay on Tuesday, while Texas Department of Public Safety and FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force coordinated the arrest and ICE lodged a detainer.
  • He now faces state terroristic-threat charges from state prosecutors and a federal count from federal prosecutors in the Northern District of Texas carrying a five-year maximum, and was booked into Tarrant County Jail Tuesday.
  • President Donald Trump ordered a full re-examination of green card holders from 19 countries of concern Thursday, while USCIS Director Joseph Edlow issued updated guidance and officials pledged zero tolerance for threats.
