U.S. authorities deported a Saudi consular official and Muslim leader who had been living in Southern California, saying he was suspected of having terrorist links.  

 

Fahad al Thumairy, 31, was detained at Los Angeles International Airport earlier in the week after arriving from Frankfurt and was deported Thursday, AP reported. He may not return to the United States for five years, authorities said. (Albawaba.com)
