UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Ben Saba KHAN, Defendant-Appellant. No. 91-30463. United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit. Submitted Jan. 27, 1993. * Decided Feb. 3, 1993. Before REINHARDT, CYNTHIA HOLCOMB HALL and LEAVY, Circuit Judges. 1 MEMORANDUM ** 2 Ben Saba Khan appeals his conviction, following a jury trial, for possession with intent to distribute in excess of five grams of crack cocaine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841 (a)(1) and (b)(1)(B). Khan contends that the district court erred by denying his motion to suppress evidence because he did not voluntarily consent to the warrantless search of his car trunk. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and we affirm. 3 Whether a consent to search was voluntary is a question of fact which we review for clear error. United States v.
