"DVD case goes to grand jury
Three implicated in bogus sales"
By Paul A. Long

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Three men charged with selling thousands of counterfeit DVDs will face a grand jury after a federal judge-magistrate said he heard enough evidence to move the case forward.
Two of the defendants, one from Morocco, one from Jordan, will remain in the Grant County Jail until questions about their immigration status are answered.
Hicham Tibtani, 35, a Moroccan national living in Edgewood, is believed to be the one who made the DVDs and accompanying counterfeit labels, a police detective testified during a hearing Monday in U.S. District Court in Covington.
Abdulnaser Al-Sweity, 35, from Jordan, owned two stores where the DVDs were sold, police said.
"It was a massive operation," said the detective, who asked not to be identified because of the ongoing investigation.
A third man, Abdelati Nachat, 28, a Moroccan living in Covington, was a clerk at the Greenup Market, where police said the DVDs were sold. He was released on $5,000 bond, but U.S. District Judge Magistrate J. Gregory Wehrman told him to find other employment."
Thank you for the update Cindy.
