Let $G$ be a simple linear group over a non-archimedean local field $F$. Assume that the split-rank over $F$ is at least 2. Let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in $G$. Then $\Gamma$ is a finitely generated ...

Let $G\subseteq GL(n)$ be a linear algebraic group, and let $G({\Bbb Q}_p)\subseteq GL(V)$ act on a ${\Bbb Q}_p$-vector space V of finite dimension. Consider the action of $G$ on abelian subgroups $L\...

If so, is there a way to conclude this from Malcev's theorem? In general, what is known about virtually torsion freeness of non-finitely generated linear groups?
