MONROVIA, Liberia (AP) — Liberian authorities say they plan to prosecute the 
man infected with Ebola who brought the disease to the United States, saying he 
lied on his airport health questionnaire.

With an Ebola crisis raging in West Africa, passengers leaving Liberia are 
being screened for fever and are asked if they have had contact with anyone 
infected.

On the questionnaire obtained by The Associated Press, Thomas Eric Duncan 
answered 'no' to those questions.

Neighbors say Duncan had helped a sick pregnant woman who later died of the 
disease. Her illness at the time was believed to be pregnancy-related.

Binyah Kesselly, chairman of the board of directors of the Liberia Airport 
Authority, told reporters Thursday that Duncan will be prosecuted when he 
returns to Liberia.
