US seeks maximum term in Conn. attack plane plot

Prosecutors are urging a federal judge to impose a five-year prison term on a Connecticut man recorded discussing attacks on a federal building and Harvard University with a radio-controlled plane fitted with explosives. The Connecticut Post reports that Assistant U.S. Attorney Krishna Patel is seeking the maximum sentence for perjury against El Mehdi Semlali Fathi, a Moroccan national who lived in Bridgeport, Connecticut, until his arrest in April.
