SNIPPET: “Najibullah Zazi, 24, left the Byron G. Rogers Federal Building after 10:30 p.m. — but is scheduled to return this afternoon for another round of questioning, according to his attorney, Art Folsom.”
SNIPPET: “Najibullah Zazi’s uncle, Naquib Jaji, whose house agents also searched Wednesday, said he believes his nephew is innocent. But he has become frustrated in pressing for answers to his questions: “ ‘Why would you rent a car on 9/11? And drive to New York?’ He said he wanted to see the countryside. I said, ‘What the hell is wrong with you? . . . What are you doing renting a car to go to New York on 9/11?’”

“Friends: Zazi “never said a bad word about the U.S.””

SNIPPET: “Zazi fasts, prays, adheres to the five pillars of Islam and worships at an Aurora mosque every Friday. There is no hint of anti-American zealotry, according to Jaji.
“He never said a bad word about the U.S.,” Jaji said. “He always talked business, how many customers he had a day.””
SNIPPET: “Jaji and his wife, Rabia Zazi, said Zazi loves to play and watch soccer when he finds time, but he usually doesn’t.
“He’s always working,” Rabia Zazi said.”
SNIPPET: “Jaji has five kids and his own shuttle-driving job makes it tough to pay his bills, but when he asked Zazi to chip in, his nephew refused. He didn’t know whether Zazi was sending money to his wife in Pakistan.
Zazi was rarely home. He got up and returned home in darkness. He didn’t get much sleep.”
