On August,16th at 14:45 Deputy Devan Blair was conducting random registration checks of vehicles at East Monroe Highway and Hog Mountain Rd. While conducting registration checks the GCIC/NCIC informed Deputy Blair that the registration for a Mazda she had checked was suspended and the vehicle had no valid insurance. Deputy Blair initiated a routine traffic stop.
Once stopped she approached the driver side and advised the driver the reason for the stop. She advised the driver that the vehicle had no valid insurance and the registration was suspended. She asked the driver for his driver’s license, and he provided a license out of South Carolina. Deputy Blair ran the driver’s South Carolina license information through GCIC/NCIC via her terminal. She discovered that the driver, identified as Rais Sekhem, had an active suspension on his license. She informed Sekhem that his license was suspended and asked him if he knew why. Sekhem stated he wasn’t sure on why his license was suspended.
While writing citations for Sekhem, she contacted Deputy Ogan and asked if he could be in route to her location. Deputy Ogan arrived on scene and Sekhem was advised to step out of the vehicle. Sekhem stepped out of the vehicle and was advised that he was being placed under arrest for driving on suspended license, no insurance, and suspended registration. Sekhem was then searched and transported to the Oconee County Jail, without incident.
Once Sekhem was taken to the Oconee County Jail, he was taken to be finger printed. His finger prints came back to a different name than was what stated on his driver’s license. The fingerprints came back to Muhammed Bilal El-Amin. Muhammed Bilal El-Amin is wanted for his alleged involvement in the murder of a man in Atlanta, Georgia.
