A teen who was the target of a police raid in connection to the “Grand Theft Auto”-style southern Maine drug trafficking network uncovered by Portland Police last spring was arrested again last week for an alleged assault at Long Creek Youth Development Center.
In a press conference in March of last year, Portland Police then-Interim Assistant Chief Bob Martin announced that they had discovered a significant narcotics and opioid trafficking operation run by teenagers out of homes in Portland, New Gloucester and Gray.
The investigation into the drug trafficking ring was spurred on by a drive-by shooting near Forest Avenue that occurred last February.
Searches of the properties believed by police to have been used by the drug trafficking network resulted in the arrest of three 17-year-old males, and the seizure of multiple handguns, a shotgun, nearly half a kilogram of cocaine, and more than $45,000.
Describing the “level of sophistication” of the teenage crime ring, Martin told reporters “they’re playing Grand Theft Auto, for real.”
“It’s not a game, it’s real life, it’s really dangerous,” Martin said last March. “And I really don’t think they fully understand the consequences of it.”
Copies of the search warrants for the residences targeted by police obtained by the Maine Wire showed that the subjects of the warrants were 19-year-old Amir Gul-Mohammad and his brother Nor Gul-Mohammad, who turned 18 in April of last year.
Booking records from the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office show that Nor Gul-Mohammad, the younger brother, was arrested with assault at Long Creek Youth Development Center on Wednesday, Jan. 8.
Long Creek Youth Development Center in South Portland is Maine’s only juvenile correctional facility, and is run by the Maine Department of Corrections (Maine DOC).
The Maine Wire has contacted a Maine DOC spokesperson for additional details on the alleged assault.

The elder Gul-Mohammad brother has a lengthy criminal history in the state of Maine, and is currently being held at Cumberland County Jail on three counts of failure to appear.

In October 2023, the Amir Gul-Mohammad was arrested by the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency (MDEA) in Portland and indicted on two counts of aggravated trafficking of scheduled drugs, as well as unlawful possession of methamphetamine and unlawful possession of fentanyl powder, all felony level offenses.
A subsequent arrest of Gul-Mohammad by MDEA in Portland in early November 2023 led to his indictment on Jan. 8, 2024, on two counts of unlawful trafficking in scheduled drugs, unlawful possession of methamphetamine, unlawful possession of cocaine base (crack), refusing to submit to arrest and criminal forfeiture.
Gul-Mohammad was arrested for the third time on April 6, 2024, on the charge of violating a condition of release, a misdemeanor.
Sentencing information for Gul-Mohammad’s criminal cases was not available in his criminal history records.
Gul-Mohammad, according to his criminal history record, is a U.S. citizen.
Another Muslim low life named Mohammed .
Get them the hell over to ICE , and get them out of here .
They bring nothing but misery , death , and destruction , wherever they are are allowed to nest .
Call Tom ! He’ll know what to do with them .
Governor why are they not in jail? You are failing!
Gul-Mohammad? more like Gilligan-Mohammad. He should be in prison making radios out of coconuts.
Are these hoods with the Muslin sounding names and a beard called US citizens only because they were born here, and not because their parents were U S citizens? “Amir Gul-Mohammad and his brother Nor Gul-Mohammad” Or were they illegal aliens who somehow became citizens?
Which church is actively converting Muslims to Christianity?
That guy is no teenager, I don’t care what they say! Did the governor fly him in here under the cover of darkness? How long has he been here? How long has his parents been here? He’s too sophisticated in criminal techniques to be a teenager or 20 yrs old. He looks like he’s closer to 30 yrs old!
