Statement From U.S. Attorney Ronald C. Machen Jr.


Concerning the Investigation Into the Death of Ali Ahmed Mohammed

Friday, November 5, 2010

“Our work is not done. The tragic death of Ali Ahmed Mohammed demands that we undertake
a careful and comprehensive investigation to determine precisely how he died. Today’s action was
taken after a detailed examination of the evidence gathered during the first three weeks of the
investigation and a determination that we need more information before moving forward. Our
investigation will be informed by pending forensic analyses and the ruling of the Office of the Chief
Medical Examiner on the cause and manner of death, important factors in any death inquiry.

“The search for justice cannot be rushed, and we will continue to pursue an active and vigorous
inquiry. This is a time of unbearable grief for Mr. Mohammed’s family and friends. We thank them
for their patience and understanding as we continue our work.”
