(AP) - A Manhattan jeweler was released from a New Jersey jail Wednesday, after being charged in a sting investigation involving the attempted sale of a shoulder-launched misled. Yehuda Abraham, 76, who lives in Queens, N.Y., walked out of the Passaic County Jail in Paterson, N.J., Wednesday afternoon after posting a $10 million bond, federal officials said. Mike Drewniak, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office in Newark, said Abraham guaranteed the bond with $5 million worth of property and 10 co-signers. Abraham, who was charged with conspiring to operate an unlicensed money transmitting business, faces up to five years in prison and $250,000 in fines. Abraham was one of three men arrested Aug. 12 in an international sting investigation.

He remained held without bail in the Passaic jail Wednesday. The third man, Moinuddeen Ahmed Hameed, 38, was also being held without bail, on money laundering and conspiracy charges.
