FBI 'terror probe' for 300 refugees, says US attorney general More than 300 people admitted to the US as refugees are being investigated by the FBI for potential terror-related activities, says the top law official. Attorney General Jeff Sessions pointed to this FBI probe to justify the new executive order banning travel from six mainly Muslim countries. The order, which puts a 90-day travel ban on Iran, Libya, Syria, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen, begins on 16 March. But Mr Sessions did not say how many of the 300 came from the banned countries. Nor did he say what the alleged offences are or how many may face charges. A spokeswoman for the American Civil Liberties Union told the BBC it was an assertion that "leaves many of us scratching our heads". "The Trump administration has offered up no proof behind this assertion, making it impossible to evaluate this claim without more information." - Trump signs new travel-ban directive - Will Trump's new travel ban be blocked? - Five questions on new US travel ban - Why did a US veteran give a stranger his Purple Heart? The president signed the new order on Monday, building upon a previous executive order on immigration that was blocked in federal court. The fact sheet attached to the order says: "The Federal Bureau of Investigation has reported that approximately 300 persons who entered the United States as refugees are currently the subjects of counterterrorism investigations." The new directive includes a 120-day ban on all refugees but it also lifts a previous temporary ban on all Syrian refugees. Dangers posed unclear - Tara McKelvey, BBC White House reporter White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer spoke briefly on Monday about federal investigations into refugees in the US as part of a counterterrorism programme. The number of individuals - 300 - is high. But it's not uncommon for the FBI to conduct investigations into people suspected of terrorism. It's part of a broader counterterrorism programme that's designed to prevent more attacks in this country. At any given time, the FBI has hundreds of open investigations, according to Rand Corporation's Kim Cragin, who worked on a 2015 report about the FBI. Most of these investigations turn up nothing, and the cases are closed. At this point it's not clear how much of a danger these particular individuals pose - or what the investigations will show. "The majority of the people convicted in our courts for terrorism-related offences since 9/11 came here from abroad," Mr Sessions said at a news conference on Monday. "In fact today - more than 300 people, according to the FBI - who came here as refugees, are under an FBI investigation today for potential terrorism related activities." The homeland security boss John Kelly was asked by CNN how many of the 300 came from the six countries but said he did not know, and he said he could not comment on the nature of the alleged and potential offences. The FBI has yet to comment on the reported ongoing investigation and it is unclear what is considered to be terror-related activities. In 2011, Barack Obama tightened security measures for Iraqis after two men were arrested on terror charges. Iraqi natives Waad Ramadan Alwan and Mohanad Shareef Hammadi were arrested on charges of attempting to send weapons and money to Iraq to support al-Qaeda there. They also admitted to using homemade bombs against US troops while living in Iraq. The pair lived in Bowling Green, Kentucky, but were never accused of planning or attempting to carry out an attack. White House senior aide Kellyanne Conway attempted to reference the two men's arrests in defending Mr Trump's initial travel ban, but came under fire after she blamed them for a massacre that never happened.

यात्रा प्रतिबन्धबारे ट्रम्पको नयाँ आदेश यसअघि सातवटा देशमाथि प्रतिबन्ध लगाइएकोमा पछिल्लो कार्यकारी आदेशमा इराकलाई हटाइएको छ। इराकका नागरिकलाई अमेरिका प्रवेश अनुमति पत्र दिँदा थप उपायहरु अपनाइने सहमति भएपछि उसमाथिको प्रतिबन्ध हटाइएको हो। ट्रम्प प्रशासनका उच्च अधिकारीहरुले, अमेरिकाको राष्ट्रिय सुरक्षाका लागि मुसलमान बहुल ६ देशका नागरिकलाई अमेरिका प्रवेशमा रोक लगाउने नयाँ कार्यकारी आदेश एकदमै महत्वपूर्ण उपाय भएको भन्दै त्यसको बचाउ गरेका छन्। कार्यकारी आदेश सबै शरणार्थीहरुलाई १ सय २० दिन प्रतिबन्ध लगाइने समेत उल्लेख भएको उक्त कार्यकारी आदेश मार्चको १६ तारिखबाट लागू हुनेछ। संघीय अदालतले पछि रोक लगाइदिएको यसअघिको आदेशले विमानस्थलमा दुविधाको वातावरण श्रृजना गरेको थियो र त्यसविरुद्ध प्रदर्शनहरु भएका थिए। आतंकवादको धम्कीविरुद्ध राष्ट्रिय सुरक्षा बलियो बनाउने भन्दै ल्याइएको उक्त आदेशलाई विभिन्न अदालतहरुले त्यतिखेर रोक लगाइदिएका थिए र त्यो रोक अहिले जारी नै छ। नयाँ कार्यकारी आदेशको खुलासा विदेशमन्त्री रेक्स टिलर्सन, महान्यायाधिवक्ता जेफ सेसन्स र होमल्याण्ड सेक्युरिटीका प्रमुख जन केलीले गरेका थिए। विदेशमन्त्री टिलर्सनले आतंककारीहरुलाई देशबाहिरै राख्नका लागि नयाँ आदेश गरिएको बताएका छन्। यात्रा प्रतिबन्ध विदेशमन्त्री टिलरसनले भने, "विश्वभरका हाम्रा सहयोगी तथा साझेदारहरु, उग्र इस्लामवादी आतंकवादले विनाशकारी अन्त्य निम्याउनसक्ने खतरा टार्नका लागि भइरहेको प्रयासका रुपमा यसलाई बुझिदिनुहोला। विदेशमन्त्रालयले अन्य संघीय संघसंस्थासँग मिलेर यो अस्थायी प्रतिबन्ध व्यवस्थित तरिकाले लागू गर्नेछ।" केलीले आतंकवादी खतराविरुद्ध अमेरिकाको बलियो प्रतिरक्षा नभएको यथार्थ रहेको र दुश्मनहरुले अमेरिकाले देखाउने स्वतन्त्रता र उदारता अमेरिकाविरुद्ध नै प्रयोग गर्नसक्ने बताए। महान्यायाधिवक्ता सेसन्सले आतंकवादी आक्रमण गर्नसक्ने आशंकामा ३ सय भन्दा बढी शरणार्थीहरुविरुद्ध अनुसन्धान भइरहेको बताएका छन्। जनवरी २७ तारिखमा जारी गरिएको पहिलो कार्यकारी आदेशमा पनि रहेका इरान, लिबिया, सिरिया, सोमालिया, सुडान र यमनका नागरिकमाथि ९० दिन यात्रा प्रतिबन्ध लगाइएको छ। तर नयाँ कार्यकारी आदेशमा विदेशमन्त्रालयले स्वीकृति दिइसकेका शरणार्थीहरुले भने अमेरिका प्रवेश गर्न पाउने उल्लेख छ। उसले सिरियाली शरणार्थीमाथि अनिश्चित कालका लागि लागेको यात्रा प्रतिबन्ध पनि हटाएको छ।
