Cab Driver Pleads Guilty to Terrorism Charges The Washington Post ^ \| April 02, 2007 \| Mary Beth Sheridan washingtonpost.com A former D.C. cab driver pleaded guilty today to conspiring to support a Pakistani group on the U.S. terrorism list by attending one of its training camps, officials said. Mahmud Faruq Brent, of Gwynn Oak, a Baltimore suburb, was arrested in 2005. He had been scheduled to go on trial on April 24 along with two New Yorkers and a Florida doctor. During a hearing in U.S. federal court in Manhattan, Brent acknowledged that he attended a Lashkar-e-Taiba training camp in 2002, according to a statement from the U.S. Attorney's office in New York. The Islamic guerrilla group is fighting to drive India from the Kashmir region on the border with Pakistan. It was designated a terrorist organization by the U.S. government in December 2001. Brent faces a maximum sentence of 15 years in jail when he is sentenced on July 10. He could have received more than 20 years if he was found guilty in a trial. Brent, a native of Akron, Ohio, was linked in court papers to Seifullah Chapman, a member of what prosecutors called a "Virginia jihad network." Chapman was sentenced to 65 years in prison for conspiring to support Lashkar-e-Taiba and other offenses. He was among over a dozen local men charged in connection with the "jihad network" case.
