ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) _ A federal judge has ordered a 20-year-old Minneapolis
woman to remain jailed as she awaits trial on charges she tried to travel to
Afghanistan to join al-Qaida and set fires at a college campus.

Attorneys for Tnuza Jamal Hassan asked Judge Steven Rau to release her under
GPS monitoring. But the judge again denied the request Tuesday.

Minnesota Public Radio reports Rau cited evidence from federal prosecutors, who
said an FBI search of Hassan's phone turned up ``terrorist propaganda.''

Hassan was arrested in January after allegedly setting fires on the St. Paul campus of St. Catherine University, where she is a former student. No one was hurt, but one fire was set in a dormitory with a daycare where 33 children were present.

Her trial is scheduled for July.
