Police: Man caught smuggling illegals via underwater tunnel
Tuesday, January 18, 2005 Posted: 7:54 AM EST (1254 GMT)
DETROIT, Michigan (AP) -- Border agents have arrested a man they say was trying to smuggle 17 Chinese citizens and an Albanian into the United States through an underwater train tunnel that links Windsor, Ontario, and Detroit.
A federal grand jury last week indicted Wissam Abudayyeh, a Palestinian man in his 20s and a legal resident of Canada, on alien smuggling charges.
Abudayyeh was to be paid $400 per person, according to immigration officials.
Defense lawyer Karen Davis Roberts said Abudayyeh "is innocent until proven guilty and deserves every right afforded under the Constitution."
Authorities say the illegal immigrants boarded a Norfolk Southern engine in Windsor before dawn January 5 and were caught by U.S. agents during an inspection after the train reached Detroit.
Abudayyeh was ordered held without bond until his trial. The 18 immigrants were being held as material witnesses.
On August 18, authorities caught 22 Chinese nationals and one Pakistani who apparently crossed the border aboard a train from Canada.

Negative, I won't smoke on the patio until it is warm, aka never. There's about three tons worth of bird **** on the patio and window sill. It's seriously like the movie birds out ther... up someone just slipped on the ice and was pecked to death by the birds. I really need to force you to smoke a cigar when I'm back.
