Apex Capital is affiliated with Grupo Mariposa, a Guatemalan food and beverage conglomerate just beginning to break into the U.S. market.

The front is reportedly affiliated with Lashkar-e-Taiba, a Pakistan-based militant group.

The two suspects, however, were unaware that the two people they had enlisted were “affiliated with and acting at the direction of the FBI,” according to the Justice Department’s statement.

A sixth man, Michael Keller, who authorities say is not affiliated with the company, is also charged with battery in connection with the incident.

These commanders are affiliated to the Taliban but often have a degree of autonomy in their regions.
