Subject: KHAN, SAMIR
Dear Mr. LEOPOLD:
The enclosed documents were reviewed under the Freedom of Information (FOIA) Title 5, United States

appropriate exemptions noted on the page next to the excision. In addition, a deleted page information sheet was

marked below and explained on the enclosed Explanation of Exemptions:

869 page(s) were reviewed and 571 page(s) are being released.
Document(s) were located which originated with, or contained information concerning, other Government
Agency (ies) [OGA].
This information has been referred to the OGA(s) for review and direct response to you.
We are consulting with another agency. The FBI will correspond with you regarding this information
when the consultation is completed.
In accordance with standard FBI practice and pursuant to FOIA exemption (b)(7)(E) and Privacy Act
exemption (j)(2) [5 U.S.C. 552/552a (b)(7)(E)/(j)(2)], this response neither confirms nor denies the existence
of your subject's name on any watch lists.
For your information, Congress excluded three discrete categories of law enforcement and national security
records from the requirements of the FOIA. See 5 U.S. C. 552(c) (2006 & Supp. IV (2010). This response is
limited to those records that are subject to the requirements of the FOIA. This is a standard notification that is given

to all our requesters and should not be taken as an indication that excluded records do, or do not, exist. Enclosed for
your information is a copy of the Explanation of Exemptions.
For questions regarding our determinations, visit the www.fbi.gov/foia website under Contact Us.
The FOIPA Request Number listed above has been assigned to your request. Please use this number in all
correspondence concerning your request. Your patience is appreciated.
You have the right to appeal any denials in this release. Appeals should be directed in writing to the Director,
Office Information Policy (OIP), U.S. Department of Justice,1425 New York Ave., NW, Suite 11050, Washington,
D.C. 20530-0001, or you may submit an appeal through OIPs eFOIA portal at
http://www.justice.gov/oip/efoia-portal.html. Your appeal to OIP must be postmarked or transmitted within sixty (60)
days from the date of this letter in order to be considered timely. The envelope and the letter should be clearly
marked Freedom of Information Appeal. Please cite the FOIPA Request Number in any correspondence to us for
proper identification of your request.

The enclosed material is from the main investigative file(s) in which the subject(s) of your request was the
focus of the investigation. Our search located additional references, in files relating to other individuals, or matters,
which may or may not be about your subject(s). Our experience has shown when ident, references usually contain
information similar to the information processed in the main file(s). Because of our significant backlog, we have
given priority to processing only the main investigative file(s). If you want the references, you must submit a
separate request for them in writing, and they will be reviewed at a later date, as time and resources permit.

See additional information which follows.

Sincerely,

David M. Hardy
Section Chief
Record/Information
Dissemination Section
Records Management Division

Enclosure(s)

The enclosed documents contained in sections 15-16 of Charlotte Field Office file 415F-CE-92639 represent
the 8th interim release of information responsive to your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
Upon receipt of the enclosed CD-ROM, please go to www.pay.gov to make an electronic payment*, or make a
check or money order payable to the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the amount of $15.00 and remit payment to the

recommended to create a Pay.gov account to retain an online history of payments made through Pay.gov and to retain
specific information for future payments. To make an electronic payment, complete the FBI Freedom of Information Act
and Privacy Act Form located on Pay.gov. Please note: if a refund is necessary, there is less processing time to refund
a credit card payment than an ACH payment.

~ SAMIR is a self-proclaimed salafi-jihadi who,


from 2005 until late 2009, administered a fundamentalist Islamic,
pro-jihad, online blog. In 2009, SAMIR published the first English
language online magazine, Jihad Recollections. During this same
time, SAMIR was a registered member on several other online forums
with similar content. Samir's blog routinely contained postings
supporting violent jihad to include links to hundreds of videos that
graphically depicted the killing of US soldiers in Iraq, suicide
attacks on coalition facilities, and speeches by Ayman al Zawahiri
and UBL. Through his online blog and magazine, SAMIR expressed his
desire to bring about the Islamic Caliphate.

(S//N~
As this investigation has progressed, SAMIR has
become more radical and more reli:ious.
In fact,l

I
_ lhis radicalization and fear
that he might attempt to martyr h1mself.
In addition, throughout
this investigation SAMIR ha
