Two men allegedly involved in trafficking at least $9.5 million in Virginia cigarettes for illegal resale in New Jersey and other states pleaded not guilty in federal court Monday.
U.S. District Judges Robert E. Payne set a four-day trial beginning Oct. 17 for Eyad Salahedin, 39, of New Jersey, and Issa Qatrawi, 29, of Henrico County. If convicted, each faces up to five years in prison.
