The wife of suspected bomber Ahmad Khan Rahami is being sought by investigators for questioning. She reportedly left the country days before bomb attacks hit New Jersey and New York on Saturday.  

The as-of-yet unidentified woman traveled to Pakistan and now authorities want to know her role—if any—in the attacks. U.S. officials are working in conjunction with officials in Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates to locate her.

Little is known about Rahami’s wife or their marriage, but it has been reported that following a trip to Afghanistan several years ago, Rahami returned to the United States as a married man. Rahami reportedly applied to bring his wife to the US in 2011.
