Mohammed Jaweed Azmath:

Azmath, who lived in Jersey City, N.J., was one of two men removed after authorities found what they called suspicious items in his possession.

The one I was thinking of was this one:
Nabil Al-Marabh, 34
Status: In custody in New York
Al-Marabh, who listed addresss in Massachussetts, Illinois and Canada since 1994, was arrested Sept. 19 at a Burbank, Ill., convenience store. Al-Marabh once worked for Boston Cab Co., where an associate of suspected terror chief Osama bin Laden also worked.
Nabil Al-Marabh
The FBI linked Al-Marabh to Raed Hijazi, now jailed in Jordan on charges that he planned to blow up a hotel filled with Americans and Israelis on New Year's Day 2000.
Al-Marabh holds a commercial driver's license and is certified to transport hazardous materials. Canadian media reported that a man with the same name and age lived in Toronto in the mid-1990s and was collecting welfare while waiting word on his refugee application; it was denied. Authorities will not say why they were seeking Al-Marabh
