FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller says the defendants were arrested for plotting to bomb government facilities and public places. They include a man who served in the U.S. Air Force.
According to a federal complaint unsealed Monday during initial appearances, 34-year-old Sohiel Omar Kabir introduced two other California men to the radical Islamist doctrine of Anwar al-Awlaki, a deceased al Qaeda leader.
Kabir served in the Air Force from 2000 to 2001. Authorities say he went to Afghanistan and communicated with the other two – 23-year-old Ralph Deleon and 21-year-old Miguel Alejandro Santana Vidriales – so he could arrange for their travel to join him and meet with his contacts for terror organizations.
