Chicago Area Hamas Operatives

Posted by Clint on Wednesday, January 10, 2007 1:42:50 PM
Federal prosecutor Joseph Ferguson said in Chicago that the activities of Muhammad Salah, 53 a Chicago-area grocer, and co-defendant Abedelhaleem Ashqar, 48, who taught business administration at Howard University in Washington, caused hundreds of deaths in Israel. They were described as highly placed members of the terrorist organization, who funneled cash and information for the group. The two men face years in prison if convicted of a single count of racketeering, conspiracy, money laundering and other crimes.

Ferguson presented evidence that Salah had received $1,000,000 and was in the process of disseminating roughly $300, 000 in cash to Hamas operatives in the Middle East.
