Ex-partner of New York bombing suspect seeks child custody: court record

HANDOUT

Maria Mena said she was seeking custody because the defendant, Ahmad Khan Rahami, "has been charged with police attempted murder and is currently under protective services after possible terrorist related activity," according to the document filed on Tuesday in the Superior Court of New Jersey's Chancery Division.

Mena, who could not immediately be reached for comment, last had telephone contact with Rahami in January 2016, the record showed.
