Pakistan Holds Top Al-Qaeda Suspect
(Washington Post) Pakistan has captured Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani, who is sought by the U.S. as a suspect in the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, following a joint Pakistani-U.S. intelligence operation, senior Pakistani police and intelligence officials said Friday. Ghailani is on the FBI's list of 22 most wanted terrorists. A senior Pakistani official said U.S. agents had been participating in Ghailani's interrogation since the arrest. Electronic intercepts conducted by U.S. technical teams based in Pakistan led them to Ghailani's hideout in Gujrat, 125 miles south of Islamabad.
