In the last couple years, about 20 Minnesotan men have left for Somalia to fight with extremist group Al-Shabaab, which U.S. officials believe is linked to Al-Qaida. Hassan reportedly left for his homeland last November.
Community activist, Abdirizak Bihi told reporters Saturday afternoon that Hassan’s grandmother learned of his death after getting a phone call from a relative of another Somalian fighter from the Twin Cities. The fighter said he buried Hassan in a cemetery in Mogadishu. The details surrounding Hassan’s death are not clear.
Three other Somali-American men have pleaded guilty to terror-related charges and are waiting to be sentenced in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis.Â
