Parents of alleged ISIS-loving NYC bomb thrower own $2.5M Pennsylvania home, are naturalized citizens from Afghanistan
The parents of one of the alleged ISIS-loving mopes who tried to detonate an IED near Gracie Mansion own a gorgeous, $2.25 million home – a sign they seized the American Dream after arriving from Afghanistan decades ago, The Post has learned.
Alleged bomber Ibrahim Kayumi’s family home is a 5,800-square-foot manse with six bedrooms and five bedrooms in scenic Newtown, Pennsylvania, records show.
Police said that Kayumi, 19, and his friend Emir Balat, 18, traveled from their Bucks County enclave to attend a counter-protest against right-wing nut Jake Lang’s anti-Muslim protest outside the mayor’s residence.
The pair allegedly hurled homemade bombs packed with a volatile explosive favored by international terrorists known as “Mother of Satan,” sources have said.
NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said the act was being investigated as an act of “ISIS-inspired terrorism.”
The alleged terrorist act contrasts with the quiet, even well-to-do, suburban upbringing of both Kayumi and Balat.
Kayumi’s parents became naturalized citizens between 2004 and 2009 after leaving war-torn Afghanistan, Fox News reported.
They appear to own a convenience store, records show.
Balat’s parents hailed from Turkey and became naturalized US citizens in 2017, according to Fox News.
Their home is an idyllic 3,200-square-foot, two-story house worth a respectable $653,000, records show.
Balat held up his right index finger Monday as he was escorted from a police precinct – the universal salute for the ISIS terror group.
Both Balat and Kayumi were expected to face federal charges that will be unsealed Monday.
