The last member of a group of Yemeni-Americans from New York state sought by U.S. authorities for attending an al-Qaeda training camp is in custody in Yemen, a senior security official said Thursday.

In a U.S. court last year, six Yemeni-Americans from Lackawanna pleaded guilty to aiding a terrorist organization by undergoing training in 2001 in a camp in Afghanistan run by Osama bin Laden’s al-Qaida organization. Al-Qaida is blamed for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington.
In their pleas, all six described weapons and explosives training and a speech by bin Laden to trainees about men on a mission to attack America.
Unlike the others, Elbaneh never returned to Lackawanna after his training in the al-Qaida camp, investigators said.
