Two Queens, New York men are expected to be arraigned later today in connection with an ongoing terror investigation.
Both of the men reportedly traveled to Pakistan in 2008 with terror suspect Najibullah Zazi. Zazi was arrested in September and charged with conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction. He has pleaded not guilty. According to FBI spokesman Rich Kolko, the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force made the most recent arrests of 25 year old Adis Medunjanin and 24 year old Zarein Ahmedzay.
Authorities have not said on what charges the men are being held.
Medunjanin who was under surveillance by FBI agents, was taken into custody after getting into a car accident on the outskirts of the city. He was nabbed by agents after trying to flee on foot. Agents executing search warrants seized the passports of both men.
Attorney Robert Gottlieb who represents Medunjanin says he was only made aware of his clients’ arrest by news reports. Medunjanin, who makes a living operating a food cart is a Bosnian immigrant who along with Ahmedzay lived in the same Queens, New York neighborhood as Zazi. Gottlieb says that last September Medunjanin was questioned by authorities for 14 hours and thought the investigation of his client was over.
