Miami: Reuters Report’s - The imam of a Florida mosque and his two sons, one also a Muslim religious leader, were under arrest on Saturday on charges of financial assistance and supporting the Pakistani Taliban, U.S. officials said.
The three Pakistan-born U.S. citizens were among six charged in a U.S. condemnation that accused them of "supporting acts of murder, kidnapping and maiming in Pakistan and elsewhere" carried out by the Pakistani Taliban, which Washington calls a terrorist group.
The condemnation, announced by U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida Wifredo Ferrer and the FBI, charged the six with generating a network that transferred finances from the United States to Pakistani Taliban groups and fighters in Pakistan, as well as for the principle of buying arms.
