Al-Qaeda suspect killed in Abbottabad
2004-06-14
Law enforcement agencies killed a suspected Al Qaeda member, while two of his accomplices escaped in the Kunj Kehal area here on Monday morning. Police found two cars allegedly used by the suspected militants. On a tip-off that suspected Al Qaeda members were coming to Abbottabad, the police chased them, Senior Superintendent of Police Syed Feroz Shah said. The suspected militants fired at the law enforcement agency officials who returned with fire. During the gunfire, one unidentified militant was killed and his two colleagues fled, Mr Shah said. The body of the deceased was later sent to district headquarters hospital for an autopsy. The police and the army refused to give any information about the operation to journalists.
