Student loans are funding Jihadis who want to join ISIS...
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Two of the Twin Cities men accused of trying to join ISIS are now charged with student loan fraud.
Investigators say both Hamza Ahmed, 19, and Hanad Musse, 19, used
more than $1,000 from federal student loan accounts for plane tickets to
Turkey and Greece. Prosecutors say they were really going to Syria to
join ISIS.
On Tuesday, prosecutors combined two separate cases, meaning that
seven young Minnesota friends will eventually be tried together for
allegedly trying to join the terror group.
Prosecutors combined the case of Ahmed, who was arrested and charged
in February, with that of six young men who were arrested in April.
Prosecutors say Ahmed’s arrest should have served as a warning to the others.
