A Texas A&M University student with Chinese citizenship faces a federal firearms charge and an immigration hold just a month after the U.S. reinstated student visas for him and more than 1,000 other international students amid an outcry over their terminations.

Liluyue Xu’s case is complicated by the alleged involvement of his potential future father-in-law, a Texas Department of Public Safety official who apparently triggered the chain of events that led to his arrest, Xu’s attorneys said. A DPS agent was the first to send a tip to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in February, saying he suspected Xu of illegally possessing weapons and selling steroids, according to court documents.

Sounds like his girlfriend’s family ratted him out!

Dude, you might want to think twice about marrying into that family. 😀
