AVIE, Fla., Sept. 15 (AP) — Insisting that he and his friends harbored no resentment, one of the three Muslim medical students detained in a terror scare on a Florida highway said today that the situation had been a misunderstanding. The student, Kambiz Butt, 25, said the men simply wanted to clear their names and be allowed to continue their education in the United States. "We're medical students; we are not terrorists," said Mr. Butt, flanked at a news conference by the other students, Ayman Gheith, 27, and Omar Choudhary, 23. "Our concern in life is to become doctors. We want to help people. We do not want to hurt."
