NAJIT mentioned in New York Times

The August 7, 2005 New York Times included an article on Mohammed Yousry that referenced the joint statement issued on March 1 by NAJIT and the ATA as follows:

Legal translators in New York were taken aback by Mr. Yousry's conviction, fearing it left them vulnerable to similar prosecution. But the American Translators Association and the National Association of Judiciary Interpreters and Translators took a more skeptical view. In a joint statement in March, the two groups said Mr. Yousry had failed to follow "many standard recognized protocols," in particular finding that he had a conflict of interest by pursuing his doctoral research while he was translating for the sheik.
