New York man gets 16 years for trying to support terrorists
2015-08-14
[DAWN] A New York man will serve 16 years in prison after admitting to attempting to support bandidos hard boyz in Pakistain.

Agron Hasbajrami was sentenced Thursday at US District Court in Brooklyn.

Prosecutors say the 31-year-old man tried to travel to the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistain in 2011 to join a radical jihadist hard boy group.

He is also accused of sending more than $1,000 to support terrorist activities in Pakistain and Afghanistan.

Hasbajrami was tossed in the slammer
Please don't kill me!
in September 2011 at John F. Kennedy International Airport with a one-way ticket to The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
.

Authorities say he had spoken of his desire to die as a martyr.

Hasbajrami will be deported back to Albania, where he is a citizen, after his federal prison sentence. His attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
