Smuggling Pakistani Local Man Sentenced to Prison
A Pakistani man was sentenced Thursday to 50 months in prison for trying to smuggle someone he
thought was part of the Pakistani Taliban into the United States, details Yahoo! News last Jan. 5, 2012.
Prosecutors said law enforcement agents worked with confidential sources to ask the three Pakistani co-
defendants to help get someone they were told was a member of the terrorist group into the U.S.
earlier this year. The three men were living in Ecuador and are accused of getting the fictitious person a
false Pakistani passport, it adds.
Identified as a Irfan Ul Haq, 37, he was sentenced last Thursday while Qasim Ali, 32, to 40 months in
prison, and Zahid Yousaf, 43, to 36 months in prison, the three of them all being judged by U.S. District
Judge John D. Bates.
The three men were arrested in Miami on March 13, 2011, on an indictment charging them with one
count each of conspiracy to commit alien smuggling. Based on the defendants' guilty pleas to terrorism
conspiracy charges, the government dismissed at the sentencing hearing Thursday the charges of
conspiracy to commit alien smuggling, Yahoo finishes.
Sure enough, smuggling inside US territory is such a grave offense that knows no foreign relations and is
easily fit for trial. That is because the US systems of laws tolerates no crime and is always resolved to
solving cases both small and big to promise its citizen a more peaceful surrounding and way of living.
In many parts of America, news of the depuy hip recall class action becomes widespread, bringing a lot
of concerns over the case. For those new to the issue, the damages in question were due to the
distribution and usage of implants (undetected as defunct when they were first released) in an
operation called hip resurfacing.
Because of the growing number of patients claiming to have been suffering intense pain on where the
implants were, the company has issued their scandalous hip recall in late July 2008, thereby suspending
sales of the durum cups used. Another angle was that “the cup was defective and failed to bond in many
patients who required the patients to undergo painful revision surgeries.”
To counter the recall and reap the amendments they righteously deserve, more and more suffering
patients have come to various law firms to seek legal help in filing the proper asr hip recall. With a great
lawyer and unfailing lawsuit at their side, any patient can feel relaxed as the case is sure to be won.
