Like many other DOJ targets, he was lawlessly entrapped. He's a 21-year old Bangladeshi. An elaborate sting snared him. In January, he arrived in America on a student visa.
DOJ vigilantes fraudulently claimed he tried making contact with homegrown terrorists. Supposedly it was to carry out an attack. Why wasn't explained. Charges put words in his mouth like a desire to "attack and kill."
FBI vigilantes singled him out. He didn't realize the danger of being Muslim in America at the wrong time. They played him for a patsy. They wanted another victim and got one. They falsely claimed he wanted to be respected by Al Qaeda leaders.
His father, Quazi Mohammad Ahsanullah, is a Dhaka senior vice president banker. He denounced the charges. He called them "a racist conspiracy."
"The intelligence of the USA is playing with a a mere boy whom we sent for higher study. The allegation against my son is not true at all. He could not even drive a car. How was he caught with a van? He fell into a trap."
He's a timid young man, he added. He's sometimes wary of leaving home alone. He came to America for business administration studies. He said a US degree would advance his career at home.
He added:
"I spent all my savings to send him to America." He's "very gentile and devoted to his studies." He never had ideas about terrorism.
He was ordered held without bail. He was entrapped with fake explosives. New York Joint Terrorism Task Force agents supplied them. How they maneuvered him into an alleged terror plot isn't clear.
