Georgia: College student pleads not guilty in terrorism case

Associated Press: College student pleads not guilty in terrorism case

A college student accused of discussing terror targets with Islamic extremists and training for “violent jihad” pleaded not guilty Thursday in a case his lawyer said amounts to nothing more than “imprudent talk.”

Syed Ahmed, a 21-year-old Georgia Tech student, and Ehsanul Islam Sadequee, 19, were charged with providing material support to terrorists. Among other things, they were accused of undergoing training to carry out a “violent jihad” against civilian and government targets, including an air base in suburban Atlanta.
