DETROIT, MI - Three Dearborn men accused of plotting an ISIS-inspired attack appeared in federal court Monday, Nov. 10, where each agreed to remain jailed while the case moves forward.

Ayob Nasser, 19, Mohmed Ali, 20, and Majed Mahmoud, 20, appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Anthony P. Patti at the Theodore Levin U.S. Courthouse in Detroit.

All three consented to detention, waiving their right to a full hearing for now but keeping the option to revisit it later.

Judge Patti confirmed that each defendant understood the charges outlined in the amended complaint, which accuses them of conspiring to transfer firearms knowing they would be used in a federal crime of terrorism and conspiring to provide material support to ISIS, a designated foreign terrorist organization .
