From Eyewitness News:Adis Medunjanin, who was interviewed twice in the immediate aftermath of the bomb plot, left his Flushing home driving erratically following the execution of the warrant there, investigators said.
Medunjanin's attorney, Robert Gottlieb, said investigators were looking to seize his passport.
Law enforcement sources said a surveillance team was following Medunjanin, who they said rear ended another vehicle at the Whitestone Expressway and then attempted to flee the scene.
Medunjanin was charged with leaving the scene of an accident.
He was treated for injuries sustained in the accident at New York Hospital Queens. He was then taken by investigators to the 109th precinct stationhouse in Flushing for questioning.
From the Times Ledger:
The former president of the nonprofit that acts as landlord to Woodside’s Razi school and is suspected of laundering money for the Iranian government pleaded guilty last week to destroying documents related to the case, the U.S. attorney’s office in Manhattan said.
Farshid Jahedi, 55, admitted to two counts of felony obstruction of justice last Thursday for destroying the documents in December 2008 after receiving a federal grand jury subpoena requesting records tying the nonprofit Alavi Foundation to Bank Melli Iran, which is owned by the Iranian government. He faces up to 20 years in prison and a fine of as much as $250,000, federal prosecutors said.
FBI agents saw Jahedi tossing out torn documents near his home in Ardsley, N.Y., Dec. 18, 2008, the day after he was subpoenaed and cautioned not to destroy any records, the U.S. attorney’s office said. He was arrested the next day.

send him to GITMO immediately.
Gitmo?? If that is the case, every single politician who signs bills to militarily and economically aid the fascist state of Israel should be sent to gitmo. Iran and Israel are both terrorist states... the only difference is that israel is our bitch in the middle east.
No scanner or pat down will ever stop a determined terrorist. Unless we give up any remaining dignity we may have left, to fly the 'very friendly' skies.
I wish the explosives on these would get a little damp and explode just enough to blow their owner's balls or ass off without hurting anyone else.
Perhaps we can amend the criminal law in this country and make the penalty for sticking explosives in your underwear to be castration.
These people are here because of the politicans.
For example, why is Peter Vallone encouraging these people in Queens by letting hookah bars open?
It breaks the law on smoking (don't give us that crap on cultural values - smoking was an American tradition before anywhere else)
and exposes American citizens and taxpayers to cancerous smoke within their homes.
Tweeding on an outragous scale.
Wow........
"It breaks the law on smoking (don't give us that crap on cultural values - smoking was an American tradition before anywhere else)"
The concept of hookah originated In India, once the province of the wealthy, it was tremendously popular especially during Mughal rule (1500s)
United States did not exist in the 1500s my friend.
No, but Columbus got tobacco from the Indians that were here then.
From Wikipedia:
The Hookah was invented in India in the court of the Mughal emperor Akbar (1542 - 1605 AD) following the European introduction of tobacco to India ...
Never heard of tobacco grown in India before the discovery of Aermica but if 'development is good' and 'unsustainable immigrant migrantion is good' just about anything goes in the Alice-In-Wonderland world of Queens politics.
Oh, and smoking is now forbidden in a number of Islamic countries.
Put this little jem in your pipe:
"In view of the harm caused by tobacco, growing, trading in and smoking of tobacco are judged to be haram (forbidden).
The Prophet, peace be upon him, is reported to have said, 'Do not harm yourselves or others.'
Furthermore, tobacco is unwholesome, and God says in the Qur'an that the Prophet, peace be upon him, 'enjoins upon them that which is good and pure, and forbids them that which is unwholesome'"
(Permanent Committee of Academic Research and Fatwa, Saudi Arabia).
So we may conclude that accepting hookah smoking as "culturally sensitive" even to the point of trampling on American citizens and values is simply bullshit.
Yet another example of our leadership in the machine with their ignorant heads up their asses.
This is all positive news in the quest to return to a rational understanding of our Country's defense.
Let's not get sidetracked by an irrelevant smoking debate.
Because, they are all linked Clink.
They are here because some hacks wanted votes, cheap labor, and pliant populations and they passed a law opening the floodgates.
Citizens went blasistic but were ignored.
Life has a funny way of correctring our unsustainable fantasies, eh Clink?
A few little bugs were swimming in the torrent and started blowing up things.
They were called Anarchists then.
Snake, don't be silly now. Of course it's (immigration policies) all linked to an extent. But smoking?
Salvatore and one of the Anons are obfuscating the good news.
Wow equating Iran and Israel together as if there were no difference between them. Boy that Salvatore is a fricking genius. I thought the fact that Israel is the only democracy in the region made a difference but I guess I was wrong there. Who cares if one country's leaders are popularly elected while the other country is gunning down its own citizens in the street? Thanks for setting us straight Salvatore.
RE; SAL,
while you are visiting GITMO,stop over to observe the results of what Communist dictator Fidel Castro brought to Havana,Cuba.
the workers roll the cigars,but it is illegal to smoke one or own one.only for export to the highest bidders.
the locals can not use the resort beaches. reserved only for high paying limo-liberals.
beware of the "spread the wealth ",mao and marx ,masters of deceit.
they have billions in the swiss banks. castro is one of the richest men in the world.
The greatest advantage of the free thinking side is that we oppose people like Silly Sally Salvatore.
