Man Accused of Running Terrorist-Training Internet Site Pleads Innocent

The Associated Press 

Published: Jan 4, 2002

LONDON (AP) - A man accused of offering terrorist training over the
Internet in the "Islamic art of war" pleaded innocent Friday to weapons
charges. 
During a hearing at London's Bow Street Magistrates' Court, Sulayman
Balal Zainulabidin denied charges of inviting others to train in
firearms or explosives and of possessing a rifle without a certificate. 

Prosecutors said Zainulabidin, a 43-year-old kitchen worker from south
London, was the founder and chief instructor of a group offering young
Muslims training in martial arts, weapons and "the Islamic art of war." 

They said he had admitted running Sakina Security Services, an "Islamic
threat management" firm whose Web site advertised "high-risk jobs in the
former Soviet Union and in the civil war arenas of the world." 

The Web site also offered British Muslims training in combat, survival
skills and martial arts. One course, called "Ultimate Jihad Challenge,"
claimed to involve live weapons training in the United States. 

Prosecutors have not suggested Zainulabidin, who was arrested in
October, was connected to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in the United
States. 

Prosecutors said Sakina was essentially a one-man operation, run from
Zainulabidin's apartment. They said Zainulabidin claimed to have trained
60 people in martial arts and survival skills, and to have sent one
person on the Ultimate Jihad Challenge. 

He initially faced a charge of training people in how to make or use
firearms, explosives, or chemical, biological or nuclear weapons. But
prosecutors lacked evidence that training was provided, a Crown
Prosecution Service spokeswoman said Friday. 

Zainulabidin's lawyers did not seek bail, and he was ordered held until
his trial begins June 10.
