The mother of Hasan Akbar, the Army sergeant who is being held in connection with an attack ing on soldiers in Kuwait, expressed disbelief at reports implicating her son.
Quran Bilal said Sunday that no one in the military had informed her of the accusations against her son. In a phone interview from her home in Baton Rouge, La., she said she thinks her son has been accused simply because he is a Muslim.
''He's not like that,'' she said. ''He said the only thing he was going out there to do was blow up the bridges. He was never like that.''
Sounds like a mom defending her son. :shrug:
Interesting background on the guy though...
