| Feds have taken in 350, still looking for 400 |
| 2001-09-25 |
More than 350 people have been swept up in the massive dragnet for witnesses and suspects cast since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, and nearly 400 others are still being sought for questioning, Attorney General John D. Ashcroft said yesterday. None of the detainees has been charged with a crime directly related to the attacks, which left nearly 7,000 people missing or dead, Justice Department officials said. Instead, most are being held on immigration charges and traffic violations, and virtually none has been publicly identified. |
