Ibraheem Ahmed Al Bayati, 19, Zoom-bombed the college class Sept. 2 — and suddenly said in the middle of it, “What does any of this have to do with the fact that UH is about to get bombed in a few days?’’ federal authorities said.
Students in the online session gasped at the comment, according to a criminal complaint.
The teen, who identified himself as Abu Qital al Jihadi al Mansur on the call, also said in Arabic, the “Islamic State will remain,’’ said the complaint. US probers say the “Islamic State” comment refers to ISIS.
Al Bayati, a US citizen who lives in Richmond outside of Houston, was arrested Friday and later told the feds that his comments were all part of a joke between him and a pal — but officials said the teen is a recruiter for the terror organization.
The suspect has never been a student at the school, a university rep told The Post on Tuesday.
“As in most instances of ‘Zoom-bombing,’ meeting login information was compromised — a student shared the online class link with Al Bayati,” the spokeswoman wrote in an e-mail.
Al Bayati is set to appear in court Tuesday afternoon on charges including making a bomb threat.
He faces up to 10 years behind bars if convicted.
