“We begin from America, where Allah has enabled brother Omar Mateen, one of the soldiers of the Caliphate in America, to carry out a raid where he was able to infiltrate a Crusaders’ gathering at a gay night club in Orlando, Florida”, the radio report said. “I can not comment on the content or outcome of that investigation”.

Mateen’s social media accounts were taken down before they could be viewed widely by the public but committee investigators uncovered some or all of them, Fox News said.

Federal investigators have said he was likely self-radicalized and there was no evidence that he received any instructions or aid from outside groups such as Islamic State.

Salman has not yet been charged, but remains still under investigation.

“She definitely is, I guess you would say, a person of interest right now and appears to be co-operating and can provide us with some important information”, King told CNN. She could not be reached for comment.

She could face criminal charges as early as Wednesday after a federal grand jury was convened to study possible wrongdoing by her, a law enforcement source told Reuters.

“I am not going to speculate today as to any charges that may be brought or indeed whether any charges will be brought in this case”, Bentley told the news conference. “It is premature to do so”.

Law enforcement officials continue the investigation at the Pulse gay nightclub where Omar Mateen killed 49 people on June 15, 2016 in Orlando, Florida. Heavily armed police killed him in a shootout after knocking holes into the club in a raid. Mateen, 29, was a USA citizen, born in NY of Afghan immigrant parents and worked as a security guard.

The father of Omar Mateen, the man who murdered 49 people at Pulse Nightclub, an Orlando gay bar, Sunday morning, isn’t convinced his son came up with the attack plan on his own. Rodeo is in the dry hills near the oil refineries 25 miles northeast of San Francisco.

A neighbour said Noor Salman only visited her mother once after she married Mateen.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation questioned Mateen in 2013 and 2014 for suspected ties to Islamist militants but concluded he did not pose a treat. But more information is emerging about the couple, who were married in 2011 in California’s Contra Costa County. Trump said he would meet with the powerful National Rifle Association lobbying group, which has endorsed him, to discuss a similar idea for restricting gun purchases. She has previously said he was mentally unstable and beat her. And that is when I said to him, ‘Sir. “I would like to be optimistic that this unspeakable act of violence will sufficiently tug at the conscience of Republican senators”, he told reporters.

His massacre is being treated as both an act of terror and a hate crime directed at the LGBT community, yet hist first wife reportedly believes Mateen himself was a closeted gay man. He also placed another phone call.

It has now been revealed that, in addition to calling 911 during the attack to pledge his loyalty to the terrorist group, Mateen called a local TV station to declare, “I did it for ISIS”.
