Third uninvited guest slips into White House dinner
A third uninvited guest entered the White House state dinner for India's prime minister, with officials identifying him later as Carlos Allen. The Secret Service said the man did not approach the president or first lady as investigators review the Salahis and assess possible legal breaches. Separate testimony from five Virginia men in Pakistan discusses terrorism charges, insisting they sought only to help Muslims while denying extremism. No charges were filed at the Sargodha courtroom hearing, though anti-terrorism charges could be pursued.
