American Muslim Council founder Abdurahman Alamoudi pled guilty today to charges of illegal business deals with Libya, after admitting that he participated in a plot to murder Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah; the Associated Press calls Alamoudi an “activist:” U.S. Muslim Activist Pleads Guilty.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. - A prominent U.S. Muslim activist who said he participated in a Libyan plot to assassinate Saudi Arabia’s crown prince pleaded guilty Friday to unrelated illegal business deals with Libya.

Abdurahman Alamoudi, 52, pleaded guilty to engaging in prohibited transactions with a foreign country, unlawful procurement of citizenship and impeding administration of the Internal Revenue Service.

Sentencing was set for Oct. 15 in U.S. District Court. Alamoudi faces up to 23 years in prison.

Alamoudi, a founder of the American Muslim Council and related American Muslim Foundation, has said he participated in an assassination plot by Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi against Crown Prince Abdullah but was never charged. No such plot was carried out.

Friday’s guilty plea was unrelated to the alleged scheme, but court documents indicate that his punishment will be increased because he intended to participate in a murder plot related to terrorism.
