"The radicalisation of US citizens by jihadist
recruiters abroad is a very real and growing concern that the
FBI and the US Government as a whole must deal with," said FBI
Atlanta Special Agent in Charge Greg Jones in a statement.
Born in Fairfax, Virginia, in 1986, Sadequee attended
school in the US, Canada and Bangladesh. In December 2001,
while living in Bangladesh, he sought to join Taliban, to help
them fight against US and coalition forces in Afghanistan.
Federal prosecutors said Sadequee and Ahmed began
discussing their obligation to support jihad in late 2004. By
this time, both Sadequee and Ahmed had become active on
several web forums known to support the cause of jihad.
These discussions quickly grew into an active
conspiracy with others to provide material support to
terrorists engaged in violent jihad.
The evidence indicated that the material support
consisted of first Sadequee, Ahmed and other individuals who
intended to provide themselves as personnel to engage in jihad
and second property, namely, video clips of potential targets
in the Washington, including the US Capitol, the World Bank
headquarters, the Masonic Temple, and a fuel tank farm -- all
of which were taken by Sadequee and Ahmed to be sent to "the
jihadi brothers" abroad.
In support of the conspiracy, in March 2005 Sadequee
and Ahmed traveled to Toronto to meet with other
co-conspirators, including Fahim Ahmad, one of the "Toronto
18" suspects awaiting a terrorism trial in Canada. MORE PTI
