A Pakistani man has been sentenced to 40 years in prison on multiple charges of terrorism.

Abid Naseer, 29, was convicted of planning to attack the city's subway system back in March.

Authorities say Naseer was communicating with al-Qaida using women's names as code for explosives.

He was also targeting a British shopping mall and a newspaper office in Denmark.

Naseer is the eighth defendant to face charges in federal court in Brooklyn related to the terror plot.
