The families of two U.S. military members killed by Al Qaeda have sued the bank they claim helped the terror group buy bomb-making materials.
A New York-based bank helped finance Al Qaeda’s bomb-making operations in Afghanistan despite warnings from government officials, the families of two U.S. military members killed by the terror group claimed in a lawsuit.
The families claim the bank provided financial services to the Fatima Group in Pakistan despite knowing it was sending “an unending supply” of calcium ammonium nitrate — the primary component in IEDs — to Al Qaeda, according to the court filing. “Standard Chartered knowingly and wantonly sacrificed American lives to increase its own profits,” the Anti-Terrorism Act lawsuit alleges.
