Pakistani Police to seek terror charges against Americans

Source: Associated Press

Pakistani police say they plan to ask a court to charge five Americans arrested in early December with terrorism, and will seek life imprisonment sentences against them.

The young Muslim men, who are from the Washington, D.C., area, were captured in the eastern Pakistani city of Sargodha. The case spurred fears that Westerners are traveling to Pakistan to join militant groups.

Tahir Gujar, a senior police investigator in Sargodha, said Thursday that the men would appear in an anti-terrorist court on Jan. 4. He said police had almost concluded their investigation and that they were "certain that these five Americans wanted to carry out attacks in Pakistan."

Judging by the actions of the U.S. government, they now have that right. It seems the District of Columbia could be a "hotbed of terrorism".

American or not.....no matter. If they are guilty of plotting to join the ranks of the Al Queda...let them suffer the same consequences as any other enemy combatant. Fair trial..and if they are guilty....I don't care if they ever see the light of day again.

otherwise I would of voted this up...
