Ehsanul "Shifa" Sadequee (born July 30, 1986, in Fairfax, Virginia)〔 is an American who was arrested by the FBI on four terrorism charges, convicted, and sentenced to 17 years in prison, to be followed by 30 years of supervised release.〔 ==Life== Sadequee lived with his mother, brother, and sister at the family home in Roswell, Georgia.〔 In December 2001, while living in Bangladesh, he tried to join the Taliban, to assist them in fighting against U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan. He and Syed Haris Ahmed began discussing their obligation to support ''jihad'' in late 2004. He become active on several web forums that support jihad, and discussions grew into an active conspiracy with others to provide material support to terrorists engaged in violent jihad.〔 In March 2005, Sadequee and Ahmed both traveled to Toronto aboard a Greyhound bus, to meet with Fahim Ahmad, Jahmaal James and another youth,〔CBC, (Among the Believers; Timeline )〕 who they had spoken to online about their mutual interpretations about Islam and jihad.〔PBS, Frontline, (Canada: The Cell Next Door ), January 30, 2007〕 While the group discussed hypothetical scenarios in which North America was attacked, the government noted there was "no imminent danger". Police informant Mubin Shaikh later stated that he believed the two Americans had been asking whether they would be able to hide in Canada if they were to carry out attacks in the United States.〔 On August 18, 2005, he travelled to his ancestral home of Bangladesh seeking a wife. At New York John F. Kennedy Airport, he agreed to be interviewed by two Joint Terrorism Task Force agents prior to departing. When questioned about the bus trip, Sadequee lied and said he had traveled alone and stayed with his aunt ''Manju'' in the city, rather than with the subject of a Canadian anti-terrorism investigation.〔United States of America -against- Ensanul Islam Sadequee, (Affidavit in support of arrest warrant by Michael Scherck ), March 28, 2006〕 Upon searching his luggage, the agents discovered two CD-ROMs hidden in the lining of his suitcase. While in Bangladesh, he married a woman two years older than he was, and upon returning to the United States at some point in 2006, she took a job working at Wendy's.〔〔(Transcript of bail hearing ), May 1, 2006〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ehsanul Sadequee」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
