CHARLOTTE, N.C. ? Two brothers were part of a ring that smuggled $7.5 million in cigarettes from North Carolina to Michigan and sent the profits to Lebanese militants, a prosecutor said Thursday.


In opening statements in the trial of Mohamad and Chawki Hammoud, Assistant U.S. Attorney Ken Bell said the two and their coconspirators used fraudulent marriages to enter the United States, then began smuggling to help Hezbollah.
