ABC NEWS: Zazi Admits Al-Qaeda Ties, May Plead Guilty
ABC News-Denver ^ | 09-18-2009 | ABC News-Denver

The Aurora man under FBI investigation for alleged ties to a New York bomb plot has admitted he has ties to al-Qaida and is in negotiations to plead guilty to a terror charge, a senior law enforcement official told ABC News.

The official said Zazi had received explosives training and his possible guilty plea would be part of a deal to cooperate with the government.

The 24-year-old Zazi had insisted he had “no ties, no connection to al-Qaida” in interviews with reporters earlier this week.

But after two eight-hour interrogations at the FBI offices in Denver on Wednesday and Thursday, Zazi told a different story this morning, the law enforcement official said.

Zazi’s attorney, Arthur Folsom, called the reports “completely unfounded.”

“Zazi has cooperated with the investigation, answering all the FBI agents’ questions except for one requiring him to speculate about the actions of the NYPD, his lawyer told The Associated Press.”

No doubt, looking for the source of the link that tipped this group off.
