Amherst, New York -- Many people in Amherst have probably presumed the town is free of international terrorists.
According to recent federal charges, they may be wrong.
Amherst resident Vijayshanthar “Chandru” Patpanathan, 44, of Shetland Drive, is being held in New York City on accusations that he smuggled illegal aliens into the country, bribed federal officials and helped raise money for the Sri Lankan terrorist group Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, or the Tamil Tigers.
