American man accused of becoming ISIS sniper faces federal terror charges

Federal investigators say the man rose through the ranks to train other ISIS fighters; Laura Ingle reports.

A 42-year-old Brooklyn man has been charged with providing and attempting to provide material support – including training, services and personnel – to ISIS in Syria, the Department of Justice announced Friday after unsealing a criminal complaint in Brooklyn federal court.

Ruslan Maratovich Asainov, a Kazakhstan-born, naturalized U.S citizen is alleged to have traveled to Istanbul, Turkey, in late 2013 before moving across the border into Syria where he became a sniper for the designated terrorist outfit.
