“For the first time, the U.S. government notified a terror suspect that one of the National Security Agency’s far-reaching surveillance programs was used to build a criminal case against him, setting the stage for a constitutional challenge. The notification was filed to the lawyer of Jamshid Muhtorov, who is charged in Colorado with providing material support to a designated terrorist organization, specifically the Islamic Jihad Union. Authorities say he sought to travel to Syria to join a group of fighters there. There have been many previous challenges to the NSA’s programs, but so far none have been able to overcome the legal issue of standing.”
