The Justice Department’s press release is here. A 28-year-old former Houston resident, Daniel Joseph Maldonado, aka Daniel Alijughaifi, was captured in Kenya fleeing from Somalia, and has been rendered to the United States. The announcement elaborates:

According to allegations in the criminal complaint, Maldonado traveled from Houston, TX to Africa in November 2005 and then on to Somalia on or about December 2006 to join the Islamic Courts Union (ICU) and elements of Al Qaeda, to fight “jihad” against the Transitional Federal Government to establishment of an independent Islamic State in Somalia. In the fall of 2006, the ICU used suicide bombers and vehicles containing improvised explosive devices to target the leadership of the Transitional Federal Government of Somalia. While in Somalia, Maldonado was … provided an AK-47, equipped with military combat uniforms and boots in Mogadishu, and participated in training camps in Kismaayo and Jilib, Somalia. The camps included physical fitness, firearms and explosives training all in preparation to go to the front to fight for the ICU. Al Qaeda members were allegedly present at the training camp. During the course of his training, the complaint alleges Maldonado spoke to an individual about his willingness to become a suicide bomber if he was wounded, and also observed the making and testing of bombs with the group’s bomb-maker.
