Authorities in Connecticut have unsealed an arrest warrant for Briton Babar Ahmad, deemed responsible for the operation of several terrorist-linked websites. The two sites, founded by an organization known as Azzam Publications, were used to support Islamic militants in Bosnia, Chechnya, and Afghanistan. The websites of Azzam Publications were directly endorsed by senior mujahideen leaders, including the legendary military commander Ibn-ul-Khattab in Chechnya.
