Video shows moments 28-year-old Anas Said arrested by FBI Houston for plotting a terrorist attack in Houston
Anas Said is accused of planning a terrorist attack, attempting to provide material support to ISIS, & bragging he would commit “9/11-style” attack.
A federal grand jury has indicted 28-year-old Anas Said for attempting to provide material support to ISIS (the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham), which is designated as a foreign terrorist organization.
U.S. Attorney Alamdar S. Hamdani and FBI Special Agent in Charge Douglas A. Williams Jr. announced that Said is in custody, and a detention hearing is scheduled at 2 p.m. before U.S. Magistrate Judge Peter Bray.
Said was taken into custody on November 8.
Court documents indicate that multiple social media accounts associated with Said contained posts allegedly expressing support for ISIS and its violent actions.
Following Said’s arrest, law enforcement executed searches on his residence, vehicle, and electronic devices.
The subsequent analysis of these seized items reportedly uncovered evidence of Said’s involvement in creating and sharing propaganda on behalf of ISIS.
If convicted, Said could face a sentence of up to 20 years in federal prison and a potential maximum fine of $250,000.
The investigation was conducted by the FBI Houston’s Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF), with support from various local and federal agencies, including the Houston and Sugar Land Police Departments, the Harris County Sheriff’s Office, and multiple federal agencies.
The JTTF includes members from Houston and surrounding areas’ law enforcement, as well as federal agencies such as Homeland Security Investigations, the Department of State’s Diplomatic Security Service, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Assistant U.S. Attorneys Steven Schammel and Heather Winter, along with Trial Attorneys John Cella, Ryan White, and AJ Dixon from the National Security Division’s Counterterrorism Section, are prosecuting the case.
It’s important to note that an indictment is a formal charge, not proof of guilt. As with any accused individual, Said is presumed innocent until proven guilty through the judicial process.
