Miami Herald reported:
An American Airlines mechanic was arrested Thursday on a sabotage charge accusing him of disabling a navigation system on a flight with 150 people aboard before it was scheduled to take off from Miami International Airport earlier this summer.
The reason, according to a criminal complaint affidavit filed in Miami federal court: Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani, a veteran employee, was upset over stalled union contract negotiations.
After his arrest Thursday, the affidavit says that Alani told federal air marshals assigned to the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force that “his intention was not to cause harm to the aircraft or its passengers.”
He said that his motive in tampering with the navigational system was because he was “upset” over stalled contract negotiations between the mechanics’ union and American Airlines that has raged for months — that “the dispute had affected him financially.”
Comment
"U.S. Magistrate Judge Chris McAliley denied bail to Alani when presented evidence by prosecutors that Alani’s brother may have ties to ISIS and had a history of incriminating statements wishing harm on non-Muslims.
Evidence was also presented that Alani had sent $700 to someone in Iraq recently, had in fact traveled to his home country without disclosing that information during his arrest, and had videos on his phone of ISIS militants engaged in murder.
“You may be very sympathetic to terrorists,” the judge told Alani at the hearing. “That’s very disconcerting.”
Alani, who the judge believes is a flight risk, will be held without bail and will enter a plea Friday."

So why did the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force talk to him?
