A Syrian national has been sentenced to 24 months in prison for stalking his ex-wife in violation of a protective order.
Alaa Hasan Qalb Allooz, 34, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Jeffrey A. Meyer in New Haven to 24 months of imprisonment, followed by three years of supervised release, for stalking in violation of a protective order.
According to court documents and statements made in court, in July 2016, Allooz, his wife, and their children emigrated from Syria and settled in New Haven. In April 2017, Allooz’s wife filed a petition for dissolution of marriage, after incidents of domestic violence and Allooz’s state arrests for risk of injury, assault, breach of peace, and violation of a protective order offenses.
In July 2017, Allooz’s wife obtained a Standing Criminal Protective Order ordering Allooz not to contact his wife. In August 2017, after Allooz threatened his wife, Allooz’s wife withdrew her petition for dissolution of marriage.
On February 2, 2018, Allooz was taken into custody by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on a federal arrest warrant and order of deportation, and he was transferred from a Connecticut state prison to a detention center in Massachusetts.
While he was detained in ICE custody, Allooz made multiple phone calls to his wife during which he repeatedly harassed, threatened, and intimidated her. He also made calls to other individuals during which he threatened to harm his wife and her family members. Allooz also threatened his wife and her family members in letters and e-mails.
This matter was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Douglas P. Morabito.
