"SAN FRANCISCO A Lodi cleric facing immigration charges agreed today to be deported to Pakistan.
Shabbir Ahmed (shah-BEER AW-mehd) had been accused by the U-S government of plotting to open a terrorism camp in Lodi to train followers to kill Americans.
The 39-year-old cleric will be deported on charges unrelated to terrorism -- that he overstayed his religious-work visa while heading a mosque in the Central Valley.
Ahmed was one of five men from a Lodi mosque who were arrested in June, none of whom have been charged with crimes of terrorism.
An F-B-I agent testified last week that Ahmed was acting as an intermediary for Osama bin Laden and other terrorists. The agent refused to testify whether Ahmed was a member of a terror group, saying that information was classified."
