The only person in custody in the investigation is Semi Osman, a British citizen and a former preacher at the mosque. Osman, 32, was indicted by the grand jury last month on charges of fraudulently trying to win U.S. citizenship and of possessing a handgun with its serial number obliterated. The government alleges that the immigration violation "was committed to facilitate an act of international terrorism." Osman's attorney, Robert Leen, acknowledges that his client is being pressured to cooperate in the federal terrorism investigation but denies that his client had any involvement with terrorism. Authorities say Osman — a permanent U.S. resident and a member of the U.S. Naval Reserve — has knowledge of the group's activities.
