“…a Lodi, California, laborer of Pakistani descent, Hamid Hayat… was under surveillance while returning from Pakistan to the United States by plane at the end of May 2005. The FBI questioned him for two weeks about his contacts with al-Qaeda in Pakistan. After failing a lie detector test, Hayat reportedly admitted that he had trained in an al-Qaeda camp run by his grandfather in Pakistan, and although he had no orders to carry out terrorist attacks in the United States, he volunteered to do so, specifically against supermarkets and hospitals. [On June 5, 2005] He was arrested, charged with ‘providing material support to terrorists,’ and imprisoned without bail. His father [Umer Hayat]…was also arrested and charged with making false statements to the FBI.”
