The surviving member of a band of Somali pirates who hijacked the Maersk Alabama and then held its captain hostage is being brought to New York for prosecution, FOX News has learned.
A Department of Justice official said that timing is unknown on when the suspect will be brought to the U.S. District Court in New York, and no announcements are expected tomorrow.
The pirate is "still in the middle of the Indian Ocean somewhere," one official told FOX News.
An official told FOX News that documents have already been filed and are awaiting his arrival in New York.
The suspect, identified as Abduhl Wal-i-Musi, was taken aboard a U.S. Navy ship shortly before Navy SEAL snipers killed the three remaining pirates holding Capt. Richard Phillips hostage on a lifeboat launched from the Maersk Alabama.

Isn’t he a juvenile? His record will be wiped clean at 21.
The big name law firms are lining up to represent him. The Govt will pay them..he will end up with a green card and a scholarship to Harvard.
Ladies and gentlemen: Abduhl Wal-i-Musi, the next President of the United States of America!
This is insanity let him be tried in Africa.
If you thought the OJ case was a mockery, wait for this one.
The socialists will completely screw this up.
He will get daycare until he’s 21 then his record will be expunged and he will be rewarded with a green card.
Send him to Texas for a REAL trial.
I mean, just kick his butt off whatever ship he's presently on and let him try to swim back to Somalia.
If he gets the magistrate that handled Sandy Berger’s case, he’ll get a $50 fine and lose his security clearance for four years.
“...The big name law firms are lining up to represent him. The Govt will pay them..he will end up with a green card and a scholarship to Harvard...”
And he’ll then fake a birth certificate, use that law firm to hide it, use the joke of a law degree he got from Harvard, run for president, and continue the Obamaloon teleprompter tradition.
Is hanging off the end of a yard arm really too complex for this administration to figure out?
Great, maybe he will make a fine citizen until he get SJS and goes on a rampage.
This is terrible. He’s going to be made into a martyr by virtue of being a Kenyan, just like the One. Navy seals should’ve took him out while they had the chance.
Shot trying to escape? What a shame!

HANG HIM FROM THIS.
Can you say Compean and Ramos! Maybe Johnny Sutton is available!
I don’t believe this for a minute.
He’s already got ACORN membership and a job in Chicago community organizing.
A book deal and Oprah gig later in 2009.
Whoops, he’s actually Somali, I guess. Well, it won’t matter, he’s still an ‘oppressed minority’.
How convenient that the one terrorist they saved just happened to be a juvenile.
Sounds like a right wing extremist name to me!/SAR This guy and his ilk are not seen as threats to America but military vets, church goers and pro-life freedom loving individuals are seen that way by Bozo and his minions.
