Egyptian cleric Omar Abdel-Rahman has been hospitalized. Rahman, who is known as the Blind Sheik, is serving a life sentence in the United States.
Americans allege that he inspired extremists to carry out the 1993 attack on the World Trade Centre.
In a bulletin, the Federal Bureau of Investigation says the 68-year-old was rushed to a hospital earlier this month.
FBI is predicting that his death could trigger possible terror attacks in the United States.
In 1998, Al-qaeda threatened the U.S. authorities that they would take revenge if he died in U.S. custody.
