Germany Charges Three Terror Suspects

Check out their nationalities.

BERLIN (AP) - Prosecutors said Tuesday they had charged three men with being members of al-Qaida, or of supporting the organization, including one who they said tried to buy nuclear material and had contact with Osama bin Laden.

Ibrahim Mohamed K., a 30-year-old Syrian national who lived in Mainz, and Yasser Abu S., a 32-year-old Palestinian who lived in Bonn, were arrested in January. They were charged on Dec. 1 with membership in a foreign terrorist organization, federal prosecutors said.

Yasser's 28-year-old brother, Ismail Abu S., who lived in Marburg and was arrested in May, was charged with the lesser count of supporting a foreign terrorist organization.
