Al-Qaeda money master Sheikh Said hiding in Waziristan
2004-12-19
Senior officials of the Interpol have said that a senior member of Al Qaeda is hiding in the tribal areas adjoining Afghanistan. The Daily Times quoted officials from the Al Qaeda as saying that Mustafa Ahmed Muhammad Uthman Abu Al-Yazid, Al Qaeda's chief financial officer and senior adviser to terror mastermind Osama Bin Laden is hiding in the mountainous Wana region adjoining Afghanistan. Interpol officials in a letter to Pakistani law enforcement agencies including the Federal Investigation Agency, have said, interrogation of terror suspects have revealed that Mustafa, an Egyptian was also having many aliases like Shaykh Said Al-Misri, Mustafa Abu Yazid, Saad Abu Shayama, Mustafa Muhammad Ahmed and Said Uthman.

The letter further states that Mustafa apart from being a senior member of the Al Qaeda was also an active member of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad and had also kept in contact with activists of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan. The Pakistan government which has launched military operations as part of its crackdown against terrorists in the US led 'War on Terror', has strangely denied having any knowledge of the developments. The Director General of the Interior Ministry's National Management Crises Cell, Brig (r) Javed Iqbal Cheema, said he was unaware of any such development.
