FULL TITLE: Anger after family of failed suicide bomber complain they were mistreated by law enforcement in the hours following his attack
he family of the would-be suicide bomber who plotted to blow himself up in a Port Authority subway in an ISIS-inspired plot during morning Manhattan rush hour claims they are are 'outraged' by the way they were treated - but they aren't getting much sympathy.
Akayed Ullah, 27, lived with his mother, sister and two brothers in Brooklyn. He built his homemade pipe bomb inside the residence.
But hours after the failed attack, his family said it was outraged by the way it was targeted by law enforcement, including pulling a teenage relative from class and questioning him without a parent, guardian or attorney present.
The family says it expects more from the justice system.
The statement was released on behalf of the family by Albert Fox Cahn, legal director for the Council on American-Islamic Relations in New York.
It read, 'We are heartbroken by the violence that was targeted at our city today, and by the allegations being made against a member of our family.
'But we are also outraged by the behavior of law enforcement officials who have held children as small as four years old out in the cold and who held a teenager out of high school classes to interrogate him without a lawyer, without his parents.
'These are not the sorts of actions that we expect from our justice system, and we have every confidence that our justice system will find the truth behind this attack and that we will, in the end, be able to learn what occurred today.
'Thank you for your time.'

Guessing he was considered a witness not a suspect and it was likely the FBI joint terrorism task force, not the NYPD that was questioning.
As for the kids “held out in the cold”, my guess is that the building and adjoining buildings were evacuated as the bomb squad looked for booby traps and additional explosives.
The time has come for Chain Deportation.
Family members sponsored this guy for immigration. They chose poorly. They failed to control their family member.
The penalty for sponsoring a terrorist for immigration should be, at a minimum, deportation.
chain migration?
America should practice chain excretion. They all need to be excreted from our shores.
