Police are expected to file formal charges soon against the FBI agent who was arrested in Pakistan after authorities said he tried to carry ammunition and a knife onto a plane in Karachi.
The Associated Press reports that a judge on Saturday urged police to file the charges by May 19, the Associated Press reports.
FBI Agent Joel Cox of the Miami Field Office is expected to be back in court on that date. He is free of jail on a $9,800 bail.
Pakistani officials have said there appeared to be no criminal intent in trying to bring the ammunition and knife.
U.S. officials said Cox forgot to remove the weapons from his carry-on luggage.
