| 2005-08-14 |
| Luai Sakra, one of the 5 most important key figures in Al Qaeda, was captured last week by Turkish Police. Israel police was almost spoiling all operation, Turkish officials say. * Sakra claimed that he helped the militants who involved the 9/11 Attacks. Sarka said: âI provided them passport and other things.â * Sakra: "I knew London bombing" * Sakra: âI do not pray. I drink alcohol and like very much drinkingâ * Turkish police asked Sakra whether he like to pray after the operation. But he rejected the offer and said âI do not pray. I do not like prayingâ. * âI do drink alcohol and I prefer like whisky and wineâ Sakra added. * Sakra also confessed that he knew the London attack before the assaults happened. * Sakra however claims that he knew nothing about the Egypt bombings. * Turkey on the other hand is not happy with the Israeli terrorism warnings before the operation. Turkish officials argue that Israel used the secret intelligence Turkey provided to warn the public. âHowever, it may had spoiled all the operation, and all the militants might escapeâ one of the security man said. Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul also said âwhat is Israel made is a shameâ. Israel had warned its citizens not to visit Turkey last week because of the Al Qaeda risk. * Sakra was detained after forged passports were discovered in a flat. Turkish police continues the investigation. |
