Updated: February 22, 2007
Two Chicago men are arrested on charges of conspiring to commit terrorist acts against Americans overseas. Authorities consider 27-year old Zubair Ahmed and 26-year old Khaleel Ahmed, who are cousins, to be part of a broad terrorist group that includes three Ohio men. The indictment charges that the group met with someone working undercover for the FBI, and discussed injuring American soldiers in Iraq. The three Ohio men are in custody in Michigan awaiting trial.
