Two more men were arrested early on Friday in connection with the case of an Afghan-born man who has pleaded not guilty to plotting a bombing attack in the United States, the FBI said.
Adis Medunjanin, 25, and Zarein Ahmedzay, 24, nationalities unknown, were arrested in Manhattan as part of the investigation of Najibullah Zazi, an FBI spokesman said.
Zazi, 24, was indicted by a federal grand jury in September on a charge of conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction. A former coffee vendor from New York who had moved to Colorado, Zazi is suspected of attempting to create and detonate a bomb in New York City on the anniversary of the September 11 attacks.
Zazi's father and a New York imam have also been arrested in the case, accused of lying to federal authorities.
