An armed man holding a rabbi and congregants hostage at a Texas Reform temple is demanding that US authorities release his convicted terrorist sister, the NY Post reports.
Muhammad Siddiqui is claiming to be the brother of Pakistani neuroscientist Aafia Siddiqui, who was convicted in Manhattan federal court in 2010 of trying to kill US authorities in Afghanistan. She is currently serving an 86-year prison sentence at the Federal Medical Center, Carswell in nearby Fort-Worth, according to public records.
The man told responders that “if anyone tries to enter this building, I’m telling you … everyone will die,” the Daily Mail reported.
