Yemeni forces have tracked down two key al-Qaida suspects wanted by the United States and will capture them by force if the pair fails to surrender, the country's foreign minister has said. Abubaker Al-Qirbi said yesterday the two men, Qaed Salim Sunia al-Harethi and Mohammed Hamdi al-Ahdal, both Yemeni, were on a list of al-Qaida suspects that American investigators want to question for alleged links to Osama bin Laden, the prime suspect in Sept 11 terror attacks in the US. A US source in Washington said al-Ahdal is a suspect in the Cole bombing and al-Harethi is believed to be a top al-Qaida operative in Yemen. |
