Aref, were convicted of conspiring to aid a terrorist group, supporting a foreign terrorist organization, and money-laundering, and sentenced to 15 years in jail.[2] In July 2008 the appellate court upheld the convictions, rejecting all of the defense's arguments. Hossain was born in Bangladesh.{{ref|Wsws040819}} The Albany Times Union reports that US forces found Aref's name, address, and phone number in a notebook found in a bombed out Iraqi encampment.{{ref label|TimesUnion060106|1|a}} The FBI sent an informer to make contact with Aref through Hossain, to try to get them to participate in an illegal arms deal. The Times Union reported that their lawyers filed motions to learn whether the pair were subjected to warrantless surveillance by the NSA. Normally the NSA is not authorized to conduct electronic surveillance of Americans, only foreign nationals.{{ref label|TimesUnion060106|1|b}} However, in December 2005, the New York Times revealed that President Bush had taken the controversial step of secretly authorizing the NSA to expand its surveillance to within the United States. Bush claimed that the US Constitution empowered him to authorize warrantless wiretaps when the US Congress granted him the authority to use force in Iraq.{{ref|Cnn051223}} According to their lawyers, if it is determined that President Bush's authorization of warrantless wiretaps were unconstitutional, and Aref had been investigated through warrantless wiretaps, the prosecution's case would be "jeopardized".{{ref label|TimesUnion060106|1|c}} A grand jury indicted Hossain and Aref on October 1, 2005. He was convicted of conspiring to aid a terrorist group, supporting a foreign terrorist organization, and money-laundering, and sentenced to 15 years in jail.[2] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,219661,00.html |date=October 11, 2006 |title= Albany Mosque Leaders Caught in Terror Sting Convicted of Money Laundering |work=Fox News |agency=Associated Press}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/two-sentenced-to-serve-15-years-in-prison-for-terrorism-offenses-51651647.html|title=Two Sentenced to Serve 15 Years in Prison for Terrorism Offenses|date=March 8, 2006|work=PR Newswire|accessdate=April 24, 2015}}
