Shahzad made at least a dozen trips back and forth between the United States and Pakistan in the last 11 years. He appeared on Traveler Enforcement Compliance System (TECS) - from 1999 to 2008 because he brought $80,000 "instruments" cash to the United States. But (with out explanation) was off the list there-after. Scientology denies that Shaz joined, and has been active since 2008. But the church has not returned calls relating to the allegation.
