ICE Officers Deport Men With Terrorist Links to Pakistan

WASHINGTON, D.C. — ICE has deported to Pakistan two individuals with links to terrorist groups.

Khamal Muhammad, 23, is an admitted member of the Harakat ul-Mujahidin (HUM), a U.S.-designated terrorist organization in Pakistan. HUM is linked to Al Qaeda and its leader is thought to be a close associate of Osama bin Laden.

Muhammad entered the United States on a visa petition filed by his mother and lived in San Francisco. During an interview with ICE agents, Muhammad admitted he had attended a HUM training camp where he was trained in the use of pistols, rifles and grenades.

The other individual, Hamid Sheikh, 41, was living in Philadelphia. Sheikh said he entered the United States illegally in April 1985. Sheikh is affiliated with militant group in Pakistan outlawed by the Pakistani government due to its involvement in massacres and targeted killings.

“These cases demonstrate how ICE is prioritizing for removal those individuals who pose threats to our national security. These two removals also demonstrate the value of ICE’s immigration authorities as critical components in the federal government’s anti-terror efforts,” said Assistant Secretary Michael Garcia.
