The indictment from the U.S. District Court for the Western Division of Missouri charges Mr. Siljander with conspiracy, money laundering and lying to the FBI about lobbying for the Islamic American Relief Agency, which raised about $130,000 that went to Osama bin Laden associate Gulbuddin Hekmatyar.

Dimitroff, who is married with a seven-month old son, was based in Boulder, Colo., while scouting for the Patriots. His hiring in New England came as a result of a connection he had made with Pioli in the early 1990s, when Pioli was working in the Browns personnel department and Dimitroff, a native of Barberton, Ohio, was performing various part-time jobs at the facility (one of his responsibilities was to help line the playing fields).
