FBI Sent Suspect to Disney World

(IndyStar.com) – When Shaaban Hafiz Ahmad Ali Shaaban's conspiracy trial ends, the cash-strapped defendant probably won't be going to Disney World. He's already been there once, courtesy of the US government. During Thursday's testimony in Shaaban's federal trial, an FBI agent and one of Shaaban's former trucking company bosses testified about how federal agents helped send his family to Florida in October 2004 so the FBI could surreptitiously search his Greenfield home. Shaaban could call himself today as the final witness in a trial that began Jan. 9 in US District Court. He's accused of trying to sell names of US covert operatives in Iraq to Saddam Hussein's government before the spring 2003 military invasion that toppled his regime.
