US EditionPakistani Man Who Allegedly Plotted US Attack Extradited From Canada
- A 20-year-old Pakistani citizen living in Canada, Muhammad Shahzeb Khan, was extradited to the U.S. on Tuesday to face terrorism-related charges in New York.
- Khan was arrested near the U.S.-Canada border in Ormstown, Quebec, in September 2024 after allegedly planning an ISIS-inspired mass shooting targeting a Jewish center in Brooklyn.
- Beginning in November 2023, Khan shared ISIS propaganda via social media and encrypted messaging apps, coordinated with undercover officers, and plotted a terrorist assault timed to coincide with the anniversary of the Hamas offensive in early October next year.
- U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton stated that Khan intended to carry out a mass shooting targeting members of the Jewish community using automatic firearms, motivated by support for ISIS. Khan reportedly claimed that, if successful, the attack would be the most significant act of terrorism on U.S. soil since the September 11 attacks.
- Khan is accused of trying to supply aid to an overseas terrorist group and, if found guilty, could be sentenced to life in prison; authorities intervened and stopped his plan before it was carried out.
