Al-Qaeda member arrested in An Najaf
2004-10-12
Iraqi police arrested a suspected member of Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda terror group in Najaf, the Shi'a shrine city's police chief said. "We arrested a member of Al-Qaeda, who had false papers identifying him as 'Abu Hussein' and seized weapons, including a Global Positioning System," said General Ghaleb al-Jazairi. Jazairi said the man was a foreigner but refused to give his nationality. He also claimed Iraqi border guards clashed with al-Qaeda members on Iraq's frontier with Saudi Arabia. The gunmen had damaged a border guard vehicle before escaping, Jazairi said.

#3  "He also claimed Iraqi border guards clashed with al-Qaeda members on Iraq’s frontier with Saudi Arabia."
This is interesting since Saudi Arabia just published a report claiming that they have had approximately over 100,000 infiltrators.
