Two plead not guilty in foiled NYC terror plot
Two high school classmates of admitted terrorist Najibullah Zazi were indicted Thursday in a foiled scheme to bomb New York City subways that a prosecutor said was directed by "al-Qaeda leadership." Zarein Ahmedzay and Adis Medunjanin, both 25, pleaded not guilty in federal court in Brooklyn to charges of conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction, conspiracy to commit murder in a foreign country and providing material support to the al-Qaeda terrorist network. Zazi, a former Colorado air shuttle driver who attended high school in Queens, pleaded guilty to similar charges this week. Zazi was arrested in September 2008 after he drove cross-country from Denver to New York, where authorities said he abandoned the bombing plan after realizing authorities were trailing him.
