N-400 for Asylee...... Help

[Reet]

Hi all, I need help here please...
I am an asylee and applying for my citizenship next month....
In my asylum application i have mentioned that i was arrested once in 1990...Should i put that in the citizenship application that was i ever arrested ?...
If i mention yes and explain when and where this happned..... will this effect in anyway at the interview?
If i dont mention this at all......and choose No for the answer...... will i get caught? do they have all the previous record at the interview ?

My record is totally clean in the US.......

Please help.

Thanks

You should mention it, but since it was a part of your persecution, and they know about it already, you will be fine.

Yes, your entire A-file will be there for review. Be consistent. Your I-485 needs to match your N-400!!!
