According to an investigation by KNX 1070, Dr. Ehab Mohamed, has been living in California illegally since 2006 when his Egyptian visa was revoked by American immigration officials.

He will be arraigned Tuesday afternoon in a Van Nuys courtroom on grand theft charges.

Mohamed is also under investigation by the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office for the death of a patient who died while undergoing a $100,000 liposuction procedure.
