Fourth New York City man charged in plot to aid Islamic State

A fourth New York City man was charged on Monday with taking part in a plot to try to provide support to Islamic State militants, prosecutors said.

 

Dilkhayot Kasimov, 26, a Brooklyn resident and citizen of Uzbekistan, was named in a revised indictment on Monday along with three other previously charged New York residents.

 

The three other defendants - Akhror Saidakhmetov, Abdurasul Hasanovich Juraboev and Abror Habibov - pleaded not guilty to the conspiracy charges during a hearing in March. Prosecutors said two of the men planned to travel to Syria to fight on behalf of the radical group.
