SNIPPET: "Aleem N. is then accused of then having transported the equipment and money to al-Qaida contacts in the Afghanistan-Pakistan border region.

Sermet I. visited Aleem N. many times at his apartment in the town of Germersheim in western Germany, prosecutors said.

The German of Pakistani heritage, who has been identified by his family as Aleem Nasir, went on trial in December in Koblenz, also charged with membership in Al Qaeda. A verdict is expected next Monday.

In another linked case, prosecutors in March charged 31-year-old Omer O. with membership in Al Qaeda on allegations he was collecting money and recruiting supporters for the group in Germany.

At the time, prosecutors alleged the Turkish citizen collected cash and other items, including a bulletproof vest and a laptop, to deliver to Aleem N."
