BERLIN ? German prosecutors say they have charged a German-Afghan man whose information led to terrorism warnings across Europe last year with membership in al-Qaida.
Ahmad Wali Siddiqui was captured by U.S. troops in Afghanistan in July 2010 and while in custody provided details on alleged plots linked to the terror network that supposedly targeted European cities. No attacks materialized.
Federal prosecutors said Thursday they had charged the 37-year-old, identified only as Ahmad Wali S. in accordance with German privacy laws, with membership in the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan and al-Qaida.
They say he trained with both groups in the Afghanistan-Pakistan border region with the aim of taking part in violent jihad, or holy war.
He was turned over to German authorities in April.
