his two sons, one also a Muslim religious leader, were under arrest on Saturday
on charges of financial assistance and supporting the Pakistani Taliban, U.S. officials
said.

U.S. citizens were among six charged in a U.S. condemnation that accused them
of "supporting acts of murder, kidnapping and maiming in Pakistan and
elsewhere" carried out by the Pakistani Taliban, which Washington calls a
terrorist group.

and the FBI, charged the six with generating a network that transferred finances
from the United States to
Pakistani Taliban groups and fighters in Pakistan, as well as for the principle
of buying arms.
