WASHINGTON (AP) - An American convicted of helping the Taliban was back in federal court Tuesday for violating the terms of his probation, authorities said.
James Ujaama, a Muslim convert from Seattle, was arrested over the weekend in Belize — where, under the terms of his supervised release, he was not supposed to be, Justice Department spokesman Bryan Sierra said.
Ujaama was brought back Tuesday to the United States, and waived his rights to a removal hearing in U.S. District Court in Miami. Sierra said Ujaama soon will be transferred to Seattle, where he was sentenced in 2003.
