BUCHAREST, Romania -- Romania has deported five students accused of having ties to al-Qaida and trying to recruit members of the country's Muslim community, an intelligence official said Thursday.
The five were placed under surveillance in the capital and the northeast city of Iasi and later deported and banned from returning for the next 15 years, intelligence service spokesman Marius Bercaru said. He would only say the deportations took place this year, and he declined to say where the five students were sent.
"The operation aimed to stop this radical Islamic group in Romania and remove these people from the national territory," he told The Associated Press.
The five suspects were trying to recruit other members in Bucharest and Iasi, Bercaru said.
The newspaper Jurnalul National identified the group leader as Musaab Ahmed Mohamed Mujalli, a Saudi citizen. Other members were Khaldoon Walid Monir Nabhan, an Omani citizen; Sudanese national Aymen Ahmed Fouad Jadkareem; and Asad Abrar Qureshi, a Pakistani. All were students in the city of Iasi, which has a large student population.
Bercaru confirmed the details of the newspaper report to The Associated Press.
The paper said the group began operating in Iasi and then in Bucharest. Their goal, the report said, was "to brainwash Muslims, indoctrinating them in the spirit of fundamental extremism."

I'm against deportation. They should be shot. Or, put in jail, then shot in the knees so they can't pray to Satan anymore.

Exactly. If they deport them, they just go elsewhere.
