Pearl Case: Pak cops don't think Omar Sheikh was the top
2002-02-13
  • But after questioning Saeed today, investigators began to reconsider whether he originated the abduction or was merely one of several important figures. Pakistani officials said Saeed admitted being involved in the scheme to lure Pearl to a Karachi restaurant on Jan. 23, but they said the suspect insisted he did not know where Pearl was being held.

    "Sheik Omar may be an active player in the whole game, but he was not the captain of the team," a senior investigator said tonight.
    I'm not sure there is a top. The whole thing looks like it was carried out by underlings on the spur of the moment.
