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.
The parents of one of the ISIS-loving suspects accused of hurling an IED outside Gracie Mansion Saturday live in a sprawling home worth over $2 million. Google Maps 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.”
Alleged bomber Ibrahim Kayumi was detained by the NYPD Saturday. REUTERS 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.
