A federal judge in the United States ruled that one of six individuals accused of supporting the terrorist network Al-Qaeda could be temporarily released on a $600,000 bond. The court in Buffalo, New York, ruled on Tuesday that Saham Alwan could be released on bond due to the condemnation of the Al-Qaeda network. The suspect must wear an electronic monitoring device during the period of release and must not leave the jurisdiction. The judge ruled that the other five individuals, suspected of operating an Al-Qaeda terrorist cell, must remain in custody until their trial begins. The judge stated that he is not yet convinced that these five individuals do not intend to flee and are not a potential danger to society. All six defendants, who are U.S. citizens of Yemeni descent, were arrested last month. They reportedly received training for several months at an Al-Qaeda training camp in Afghanistan in 2001.
