Gabbal Posted January 24, 2006 Muslim cleric faces charges in Washington SEATTLE, WA, United States (UPI) -- A Muslim cleric, arrested last November, Monday faced charges in Seattle of giving false information to U.S. immigration officials to enter the country. Abu Abrahim Sheik Mohamed, the imam of the Abu-Bakr Mosque in Rainier Valey, was arrested by the Seattle FBI`s Joint Terrorism Task Force as he got off a domestic flight at Sea-Tac Airport. His arrest had shocked Seattle`s Somali community which says he works to keeps children out of trouble, reports the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Hilary Han, Mohamed`s attorney, said government documents also contained 'hearsay allegations that he is involved in groups that they classified as militant,' the report said. 'In my opinion, it`s just inflammatory. He has no links to any terrorist group. He`s not engaged in any terrorist activity.' Han said. The newspaper quoted a federal source that agents had not found information showing Mohamed participated in terrorist activities and that it was unlikely he would face any terrorism-related charges. One Somali community member said Mohamed is the victim of slander by tribal opponents of the cleric. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
