Terror-related activities:
Ahmed had a darker past that no one in Arizona knew about, federal officials allege. The Justice Department announced that federal officials last week arrested Ahmed, whose full name is Ali Yousif Ahmed al-Nouri, for the deaths of two Iraqi police officers and planned to extradite him for murder.

Ahmed is alleged to have been the leader of a group of Al-Qaeda terrorists in Al-Fallujah, Iraq, appeared today before a federal magistrate judge. He is wanted to stand trial in Iraq for two charges of premeditated murder committed in 2006.

On June 1, 2006, six masked men stepped out of two cars carrying guns in front of a store on Street 40 in Fallujah, according to the complaint. A witness watched as one of the men pointed a handgun at Issam Ahmed Hussein, a first lieutenant in the local police force. The masked man pulled the trigger, but the gun jammed. The witness allegedly told police that Ahmed, who was not wearing a mask, pulled out a gun, according to the complaint. Then, Ahmed told the men to leave the police officer alone.

One of the masked men told Ahmed to step back – either telling him “step back and don’t interfere with this matter” or “Ali step back, it is not your business,” according to two translations of the witness statement. Then, another man shot the officer with an AK-47, killing him. Ahmed and the other men allegedly fled the scene, according to the complaint.

About four months later, on Oct. 3, 2006, Ahmed allegedly parked in front of another police officer in Fallujah. Masked men in the vehicle allegedly fatally shot officer Khalid Ibrahim Mohammad. A witness told police that Ahmed, whose mask allegedly fell off, was a local carpenter “known for conducting assassination operations on members of the police force.” The witness told police that Ahmed got out of the car and shot Mohammad. Another witness told police the same story.

After police arrested one of the other men who allegedly gunned down the officers, he told police that Ahmed was the leader of an al-Qaeda group, the complaint said.

An Iraqi judge in a magistrate court issued a warrant for Ahmed’s arrest last May, according to the complaint. Iraqi officials requested that Ahmed be arrested and extradited to face murder charges for the two killings.
