BY CRISTABELLE TUMOLA [email protected] A Queens man and his accomplice have been charged with conspiring to solicit aid to support terrorist organizations fighting American troops in Afghanistan, officials announced on Thursday, October 10. The two men were allegedly engaging in a plan to supply terrorist organizations, which included the Taliban and Al-Qaeda, with warm winter clothing and electronics, according to District Attorney Richard A. Brown. The supplies, said Brown, could have allowed the terrorists to “endure the harsh Afghan winters and extend the fighting season.” Humayoun Ghoulan Nabi, 27, a Pakistani national who lives in Elmhurst, and Ismail Alsarabbi, 32, a Brooklyn resident who is a naturalized U.S. citizen from Kuwait, were arraigned on October 8 on charges of second-degree soliciting or providing support for an act of terrorism and fifth-degree conspiracy.
