      A pro-\(p\) group \(G\) is called Golod-Shafarevich if it has a pro-\(p\) presentation satisfying a certain condition which guarantees that \(G\) is infinite. Such groups appear as Galois groups and also in 3-dimensional geometry. The main result is that for every sufficiently large prime \(p\) there is a finitely generated group with \(T\)-propertry whose pro-\(p\) completion is Golod-Shafarevich. This refutes a recent conjecture of Zelmanov.
