not sure if this has been posted yet ... turns out this poor guy was falsely accused.

COLUMBUS (AP) - A woman was arrested Monday on charges she falsely told the FBI that her estranged husband was plotting to bomb the U.S. and Saudi embassies in London.

Kadrah Farah Ali, 42, was taken into custody at her home in Columbus.

Last month, according to the allegations, Ali reported to the FBI that her husband, Osman Yusef Dirie, told her that he and four Moroccans were going to bomb the embassies.

The FBI notified the CIA and British authorities. They interviewed Dirie in England, where he lives, but did not charge or arrest him.

Ali later told officials that she made up the story to hurt Dirie, who she said married her to become a U.S. citizen, the FBI said.

Both are originally from Somalia, but Ali is an American citizen, the FBI said. If convicted, she could get up to five years in prison.
