Minneapolis, MN Attorney News ArchiveWoman faces five years in jail for lying to a grand juryA five-year jail term looms over Saynab Hussein after she pleaded guilty to having lied before a grand jury in 2009 about young men leaving Minnesota for Somalia and joining a terrorist group. Hussein admitted having told the grand jury that she had no idea or was not aware of anyone raising funds for the men being recruited to go to Somalia. Hussein, now 23 and carrying a child, in fact, was one of those who had raised the funds. Minnesota criminal defense attorney John Lundquist attributed his client's mistake to being young but that she has regretted what she has done. Hussein is one of the long list of persons charged in connection with the government's investigation on the recruitment of young men for terrorism in Somalia. Hussein's sentencing has yet to be scheduled. |
