Statement from Commissioner James P. O'Neill on the Conviction of Port Authority Bomber Akayed Ullah

November 6, 2018

"Today's jury verdict of guilty on all charges demonstrates clearly that New Yorkers will never be deterred by anyone who seeks to sow fear in our city, or challenge our nation’s way of life. Violence will never have a place in any discussion in a democratic society. Our fight against the evolving face of terrorism is one that no law enforcement agency can afford to lose, and neither can the public we serve. And so, as we make our way forward together, we remain steadfast in our commitment to maintain public safety in every neighborhood."
