From Times Staff and Wire Reports

A federal magistrate set bail Monday at $1.2 million for a Lodi man accused of lying to the FBI to protect his son from charges that he attended a Pakistani terror training camp.

The release of Umer Hayat, 47, was delayed until at least Friday to give authorities time to appeal to a federal judge. Hayat, 46, had previously been denied bail. His son, Hamid Hayat, 23, prepared to wage holy war on the United States, federal prosecutors alleged. Hamid Hayat is being held without bail.
