Missouri州男子Saif Faiq参与Danbury比特币抢劫绑架案判48个月：受害人是数亿美元比特币窃案参与者的父母
美国司法部康涅狄格区联邦检察官办公室宣布，住在 Missouri 州 St. Louis 的 Saif Faiq（23岁）10月28日在 Hartford 被联邦法官 Sarala V. Nagala 判处48个月监禁与2年监管释放，罪名涉及2024年8月在康涅狄格州 Danbury 发生的一起比特币抢劫未遂与绑架案。宣布此判的是康涅狄格区联邦检察官 David X. Sullivan。
据法庭文件与法庭陈述，2024年8月25日，Danbury 警方逮捕了六名 Florida 州男子，他们当日暴力劫持一辆 Lamborghini Urus 并绑架了车上两名乘客。调查发现，受害人是一名参与盗窃数亿美元比特币者的父母；Faiq 等人策划并发动这起抢劫与绑架，正是为了夺取其中一部分比特币。
Faiq 在案中的分工包括招募参与人手、亲自赶赴康涅狄格州执行入室抢劫与绑架计划、与兄长 Adam Iza 协调行动，并协助监视受害人。Iza 通过手机与加密通信应用与部分绑架者联络、指挥行动后勤并提供资金；另一名被指控的共谋者曾于2024年7月在 Miami 一家夜总会与受害人之子发生冲突，案发前与部分绑架者频繁联络、提供资金并安排交通与住宿。
Faiq 自2025年11月12日被捕后一直被羁押，2026年6月8日就以抢劫干扰商业共谋（Hobbs 法抢劫罪）认罪。其兄 Adam Iza 已就同一罪名认罪，并于2026年9月9日被判15年监禁。
本案由联邦调查局（FBI）New Haven 暴力犯罪任务小组、FBI Los Angeles 与 St. Louis 办公室及 Danbury 警察局调查，助理联邦检察官 Karen L. Peck 与 Stephanie T. Levick 负责起诉。
Missouri Man Saif Faiq Sentenced to 48 Months in Federal Prison for Role in Danbury Bitcoin Robbery and Kidnapping Scheme in Connecticut
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Connecticut announced that Saif Faiq, 23, of St. Louis, Missouri, was sentenced on October 28 in Hartford by U.S. District Judge Sarala V. Nagala to 48 months of imprisonment and two years of supervised release for his involvement in an attempted robbery of Bitcoin and a kidnapping in Danbury, Connecticut, in August 2024. U.S. Attorney David X. Sullivan announced the sentence.
According to court documents and statements made in court, on August 25, 2024, Danbury Police arrested six Florida men who were involved in a violent carjacking of a Lamborghini Urus and the kidnapping of two occupants of the vehicle on that date. The investigation revealed that the kidnapping victims are the parents of an individual who participated in the theft of hundreds of millions of dollars in Bitcoin. In an attempt to steal some of that Bitcoin, Faiq and others planned and coordinated the attempted robbery and ultimately the kidnapping.
Faiq recruited participants for the crime, traveled to Connecticut for the planned home invasion and kidnapping, coordinated with his brother Adam Iza, and helped conduct surveillance on the victims. Iza communicated via cellphone and encrypted messaging applications with certain of the kidnappers, directed them as to the logistics of the scheme, and also provided funding. Faiq's alleged co-conspirator, who had an altercation with the victims' son in a Miami nightclub in July 2024, was in regular communication with certain of the kidnappers in the days before the crime, provided funding for it, and helped arrange the participants' transportation and lodging.
Faiq has been detained since his arrest on November 12, 2025. On June 8, 2026, he pleaded guilty to conspiracy to interfere with commerce by robbery, known as Hobbs Act robbery. Iza pleaded guilty to the same offense and was sentenced on September 9, 2026, to 15 years of imprisonment.
The matter is being investigated by the FBI New Haven Violent Crimes Task Force, FBI Los Angeles, FBI St. Louis, and the Danbury Police Department. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Karen L. Peck and Stephanie T. Levick.
