Columbia-based Islamic Organization Indicted on Federal Charges

March 7, 2007 By admin Leave a Comment

A federal grand jury has indicted the Columbia-based Islamic American Relief Agency and five of its officers, employees, and associates on charges of illegally transferring funds to Iraq in violation of federal sanctions. The federal indictment also charges them with stealing government funds, and with attempting to avoid government detection of illegal activities.

The Agency was an Islamic charitable organization that was officially formed in 1985 and closed in October of 2004 when it was identified by the U.S. Treasury Department as a specially designated global terrorist organization.

The co-defendants were charged in a 33-count indictment returned by a federal grand jury in Kansas City.
