A Long Island man is scheduled to appear in court today on charges he unwittingly funded the failed attempt earlier this year to set off car bomb in Times Square.

The U.S. attorney’s office is accusing Mohammad Younis of operating an unlicensed money transfer business between the United States and Pakistan.

Prosecutors say Younis provided thousands of dollars in cash which was used to facilitated the May 1st attempt by Faisal Shahzad to detonate an explosives-packed SUV in the area.

Shahzad has already pleaded guilty to 10 counts related to the incident.

Officials do not believe Younis was aware of the intended use of the money. If convicted, he faces a maximum sentence of five years for each of the two charges against him.
