The FBI has offered a $5 million reward to help catch an American citizen on the agency’s most wanted list - amid fears he could be plotting an attack in the US.

Officials unsealed a new indictment against 37-year-old Jehad Serwan Mostafa, claiming his leadership of the terrorist outfit al-Shabaab has led to the slaughter and injury of hundreds of innocent victims in Africa.

Regarded now as the highest-ranking US citizen fighting overseas with a terrorist organisation, Mostafa was first charged in 2009 with several counts of providing material support to a foreign terrorist organisation – however he has remained at large.

But now, under the new superseding indictment, Wisconsin-born Mostafa has been accused of playing a critical role in al-Shabab, which promotes an Islamic state and has killed thousands of people since its inception in 2006.
