Osama arrested near Pak-Afghan border area?
JAB mentioned this article in a comment, late last night...The American and local agencies Thursday arrested 9 Al-Qaeda suspects who may include Osama Bin Laden or his son near Shamshi airport near the Pak- Afghan border areas. Sources maintained that at least one "very important" Al-Qaeda man (who may be Osama Bin Laden or his son) was also among the detainees. The sources suggested that the operation near Chaghi could well be the follow up of reports that arrested Al-Qaeda suspect Sheikh Khalid Mohammed had told investigators about the whereabouts of Osama. The detained suspect had reportedly told the investigators that Osama had met him in mountainous regions of frontier areas near Balochistan. Instead of in NWFP, or in Afghanistan as the Qaeda thugs always claimed... Information Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed when contacted showed ignorance about the incident. "I don't have any information about this operation. I can't say anything", he told Online. "Nobody never tells me nuttin'!" Presidential spokesman Maj. Gen. Rashid Qureshi also said that he had no knowledge about the incident. "No, nothing. I don't know", he told Online. "Osama who? He ain't in Pakland!" Posted by: Fred Pruitt 2003-03-07 |
