Makwan Jaff, an Iraqi man is accused of using fake Social media accounts and threatening emails to harass a woman he met in medical school in St.Kitts.

Jaff was arrested in Maine USA after federal authorities accused him of cyberstalking the woman using fake Facebook accounts and threatening emails.

The 35 year old met the woman while they were classmates attending the Windsor University School of Medicine on St.Kitts , according to a document unsealed by a judge’s order Monday in U.S. District Court in Portland, Maine after Jaff’s arrest.

Jaff is accused of stalking and harassing the woman starting in September 2013 after he professed his love to her while they were medical students. She told him she did not feel the same way, according to an affidavit filed in June by Nathan Jacobs, an FBI agent, seeking a warrant for Jaff’s arrest.

Jaff was arrested on a felony stalking charge Saturday in North Carolina, according to court records. No date has been scheduled for when he will be taken to Maine to face the charge in court.

The woman, who is not identified in court records, is a 25-year-old South African native and Canadian resident. She first reported Jaff’s behavior to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, who referred the case to the FBI.

After the woman rejected Jaff’s advances, she never saw him again. He unfriended her on Facebook and deleted her from his list of contacts on Skype, but then began sending her harassing and threatening messages daily starting in February from his sister’s Facebook account, Jacobs said in his affidavit.

“Disrepecting me like this means a (expletive) war,” Jaff wrote in one message, according to Jacobs.

By March, the woman had deleted her own Facebook account but discovered that five new Facebook accounts had been created in her name or variations of her name, with the words “slut” and “whore” added to the profiles, Jacobs wrote.

Later in March, after the woman reported the accounts to Facebook’s corporate offices as fraudulent, Jaff is accused of emailing her, blaming her for his expulsion from the medical school, and making statements such as: “I will dedicate the rest of my life to hunt you.”

Jaff allegedly continued to send threatening emails to the woman after she traveled with her medical school class in May to a school program in Scarborough.

Jacobs lists more than 20 examples of the emails in his affidavit, each containing insults, threats, obscenities, and promises never to relent, many of them misspelled.

In one message on June 24, he allegedly wrote: “I promise you I will have my revenge if it coset (sic) me my mother (expletive) life. Its (sic) all matter of time before I show up in front of you or let you know it was me! just wait till Monday and see what comes ar (sic) you and that is not gonna be the end of it that will be just the starter.”

Usually, in such cases, the accused takes the help of a criminal defense attorney (like the ones at Salwin Law Group) to lead the case. However, in this case, the court records do not indicate whether Jaff has an attorney.

If convicted, Jaff faces up to five years in federal prison and a maximum fine of $250,000.
