ICE DEPORTS CONVICTED TERRORIST WHO TRIED TO BOMB NEW YORK CITY
By: Daily Caller, October 18, 2019: (thanks to Christian):
Immigration and Customs Enforcement deported a Sudanese national who was involved in a large-scale terror scheme to blow up the United Nations and other areas around New York City.
The agency deported Amir Abdelghani, a 59-year-old convicted terrorist, back to his home country of Sudan on Oct. 12, according to an ICE press release. His removal marks the close of decades-long reprimand after a jury convicted him in 1996 of a foiled terrorist plot targeting major landmarks around the country’s most populous city.
“THE REMOVAL OF THIS CONVICTED TERRORIST IS A STRONG DECLARATION OF ICE’S COMMITMENT TO PUBLIC SAFETY AND NATIONAL SECURITY,” SIMONA FLORES-LUND, ICE’S ENFORCEMENT REMOVAL OPERATIONS PHILADELPHIA FIELD OFFICE DIRECTOR, SAID IN A STATEMENT FRIDAY. “THIS REMOVAL IS A VICTORY FOR THE UNITED STATES AND FURTHER EMPHASIZES ICE’S VITAL ROLE IN PROTECTING OUR NATION.”
U.S. authorities apprehended Abdelghani, then 33 years old, in 1993 for his involvement in a terrorist conspiracy to blow up the United Nations, FBI offices and other prominent New York City locations — part of a planned holy war against the U.S. Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman, a radical Muslim cleric from Egypt, led the scheme, according to court documents.
