A Pakistani man suspected of helping the failed bombing attempt in Times Square had bomb suspect Faisal Shahzad’s phone number on his cell phone, a federal immigration attorney revealed at a hearing Thursday, FOX News Channel reported.

Investigators also found an envelope with the name “Faisal” written on it in Aftab Ali Khan’s apartment, according to Richard Neville, deputy chief counsel for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Boston.

The possible link between Khan, 27, and Shahzad was revealed at a hearing Thursday where Khan faced charges of violating immigration law by staying in the country on an expired visa.

Sources told FOX News that Khan admitted to the immigration judge that he was inside the United States illegally and offered to leave the country voluntarily.

Khan’s lawyer denied his client had any connection with Faisal Shahzad or had ever heard his name.

Khan is one of three Pakistanis believed to have helped Shahzad by providing money. The three men were arrested May 13 after a series of FBI raids across the northeastern U.S.

Khan worked as a civilian employee with security clearance at a U.S. Army base in Kuwait and was engaged to an American solider, who initially sponsored his visa to come to the U.S., Khan’s lawyer Saher Macarius said.

Upon Khan’s arrival in August 2009, his fiancee changed her mind and Khan married another woman four months later on Nov. 17, Macarius said.

While the government has not yet charged the men in connection to the Times Square bombing attempt, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder called the arrests of the three men a significant step in the investigation.

“These are people who are connected to Mr. Shahzad, and we’re still trying to determine exactly what the nature of that connection was,” Holder said on May 13 after announcing the arrests.

Holder added that there was a “basis to believe that one of the things that they did was provide him (Shahzad) with funds.”

Khan’s roommate, 43-year-old taxi driver Pir Khan, was also arrested and is being held without bail after a hearing Tuesday.

A third man, Mohammad Shafiq Rahman, was arrested in Maine.

Pakistan’s Consul General said that both Khan and his roommate deny any connection to Faisal Shahzad, myFOXboston.com reported.
