(AP) An automobile mechanic has been charged with lying to federal agents who were investigating his shipments of medical supplies to his native Pakistan.
Farheed Ahmed Khan, 60, of Manchester, was indicted by a grand jury Sept. 6 on one count of making a false statement in a terrorism investigation.
His lawyer, Faisal Gill, denies his client lied or had anything to do with terrorism.
“It is such a nothing case,” Gill said. “I can barely contain my outrage that this is even going to trial. They haven’t alleged he was sending anything to any terrorist groups in Pakistan. I’m trying to see where the terrorism link comes in.”
