NBC晚间新闻 美机场维修工被怀疑与ISIS有关

Tonight Federal procurator say when they searched the phone of an American Airline mechanic who work in Miami, they found an ISIS video showing people being killed. They say he forwarded that video to someone else, including a message. "Wishing Allah would use his devine powers to harm non-muslims". The judge called the new evidence disconcerting and said it suggest the mechanic could be sympathetic to terrorists. The insider threat is the soft underbelly of airport security. His name is abdual-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani and he was arrested two weeks ago charged with tampering¹ a flight sensor² on an American 737. He told investigators³ he did it as part of a pay dispute to force a repair and get more over time.

Court documents say after tampering with the sensor, He went into the cockpit to be sure the problem would show up on the instrument panel, which it did. So the flight from Miami to the bahamas never took off. Tower, American 2834. We got to work a maintenance issue here. Just had some lights come on. Alani is 60, a naturalized U.S. Citizen born in Iraq and been an airline mechanic for 30 years. American says safety is its top priority and he's been fired. The backgrounds of people who service airplanes on the ground at airports worldwide has long been a security concern. That requires ongoing⁴ monitoring, ongoing security checks, and background checks of all those who are touching⁵ the aircraft and airport security. Officials say tonight while the discovery of the ISIS material on mechanic's phone is disturbing, it's possible he tampered⁶ with the plane to get over time. But now they are investigating if his motives⁷ were more complicated. His lawyer says Alani never intentionly put people in danger.

今晚，联邦检察官表示，他们在搜查迈阿密一名机修工的电话时，发现了一段展示人们被杀的伊斯兰国视频。他们称，他把那个视频发给另外一个人，还有一句话 “希望真主阿拉能用他神圣的能力去伤害非穆斯林人士。”法官称新的证据令人不安，并表示这表明机修工可能同情恐怖分子。内部人员威胁是机场安全的软肋。他的名字是阿卜杜勒-马吉德·马鲁夫·艾哈迈德·阿兰尼，两周前他因被控篡改一架美国737飞机的飞行传感器而被捕。 他对调查人员说，他这么做是为了迫使公司进行维修，并随着时间的推移得到更多赔偿，这是薪酬纠纷的一部分。法庭文件称，在篡改了传感器后，他走进驾驶舱，确认问题会出现在仪表盘上，而后仪表盘确实出现了问题。因此，从迈阿密飞往巴哈马群岛的航班从未起飞。美国2834塔台，我们要解决一个维护问题。刚开了几盏灯。阿兰尼现年60岁，是一名出生于伊拉克并加入美国国籍的美国公民，他从事航空机修工工作已有30年。美国人说安全是他们的首要任务，他被解雇了。长期以来，全球机场地面服务人员的背景一直是一个安全问题。这就需要对所有接触飞机和机场安检人员进行持续监测、持续安全检查和背景调查。官方称，今晚虽然在机修工手机上发现伊斯兰国视频令人不安，他可能篡改了传感器来拖延时间。但是，现在他们在调查是否他的动机更加复杂。阿兰尼的律师表示他从不会故意给人们带来危险。
