Tomas-Kaan Jimenez-Guzel, 19, and Milo Sedarat, 21, both of Montclair, New Jersey, pleaded guilty on July 27, 2026 and July 28, 2026, respectively, before U.S. District Judge Katharine S. Hayden in Newark federal court to terrorism-related offenses. Jimenez-Guzel pleaded guilty to an Information charging him with conspiracy to provide material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization, and Sedarat pleaded guilty to an Information charging him with concealment of material support and resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization.

Additionally, Saed Ali Mirreh, 20, of Kent, Washington pleaded guilty on July 22, 2026, before U.S. District Judge Richard A. Jones in U.S. District Court in Seattle, Washington to an Information charging him with conspiracy to provide material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization. Mirreh was originally charged with the conspiracy in the District of New Jersey and consented to have his case transferred to the Western District of Washington for purposes of pleading guilty.

“These men actively plotted and planned to go overseas to fight with ISIS, one of the worst terrorist organizations responsible for unspeakable violence all over the world. FBI Newark Joint Terrorism Task Force and our law enforcement partners thwarted their plans and stopped Jimenez-Guzel as he arrived at the airport. Regardless of the intent to either fight overseas or plot an attack on our soil – we will tenaciously investigate and arrest anyone supporting and conspiring with terrorists,” said Stefanie Roddy, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Newark.
