NEW YORK A man convicted on conspiracy charges in a scheme to blow up a busy
subway station in New York City will be sentenced today in federal court.

Shahawar Matin Siraj (SHAH'-hah-wahr mah-TEEN' sih-RAHJ'), who was arrested
on the eve of the 2004 Republican National Convention, could get more than
30 years behind bars. 

Prosecutors say the Pakistani immigrant was the "driving force" behind a
"workable terrorist plot" to set off a bomb at the subway station in Herald
Square, which includes Macy's flagship store. The prosecutors say he should
get at least 30 years, and possibly life, in prison. 

But defense attorneys have tried to convince a judge their client's sentence
should not exceed ten years since the attack never came close to being
carried out. 

Another man suspected in the plot cooperated with the government.
