Last Tuesday (August 16), deputies with the Oconee County Sheriff’s Office pulled over a man while conducting random registration checks of vehicles and discovered that the car he was driving had no valid insurance, and his license was suspended. 

Officers informed the man that his license, issued in South Carolina under the name Rais Sekhem, was suspended, and the man told the deputies that he was unaware of the suspension. The man was taken into police custody and booked for driving on suspended license, no insurance, and suspended registration.

While he was being fingerprinted, the man's prints came up under the name Muhammed Bilal El-Amin, who is wanted for the 1994 murder of 18-year-old Jafferd Tucker in Georgia. El-Amin is accused of shooting a man in the face with a handgun at the Oakland Street train station, who later died of his injuries.
