Father and Son Indicted in Terror Case

A federal grand jury has indicted a father and son in California on charges of lying during a government probe into their suspected ties to al Qaeda training camps in Pakistan, the U.S. Attorney's office said on Thursday.
The grand jury returned a three-count indictment charging Pakistan-born Umer Hayat and his son, Hamid Hayat, both of Lodi, California, with lying to the FBI, according to a statement from the U.S. Attorney's office for the Eastern District of California. The indictment charged Hamid Hayat with one count of falsely stating he was not involved with a terrorist organization and another count of lying about attending terrorist or jihadist training camps.
