Alabama man on FBI's "most wanted terrorist" list
WASHINGTON (AP) — An American suspected of operating with terrorists in Somalia has been added to the FBI's list of most wanted terrorists.
The FBI on Wednesday placed Omar Shafik Hammami, formerly of Alabama, on its list. Officials believe Hammami is a senior leader in the Somalia-based terror group al-Shabab, which has links to al-Qaida. He faces charges in Alabama of providing material support to terrorists. The FBI also added to the list a Filipino man who officials say is the head of a local terror group and was involved in the 1993 kidnapping of an American in the Philippines.
There are currently 31 people on the list.
