Pakistanis Arrested 5 Pakistanis held in Macau

LISBON: Police in Macau on Sunday detained five Pakistanis on suspicion of links to the September 11 air assaults in the United States, Lusa news agency reported here.

The report quoted a spokesman for the Macau government as confirming the detention and nationalities of the five men, saying the operation had been mounted on a tipoff from abroad.

Police sources told Lusa that the arrests followed a request from the US consulate in Hong Kong, which had provided the identities of the five men.

A raid is currently under way on the region's border with China, Lusa said.

The Pakistanis, detained at the Hotel Lisboa, Macau's main casino, and in a private apartment, carried expired visas and were suspected of involvement in criminal activities. Two suitcases and a travel bag were seized.

Macau is a former Portuguese colony which is now an autonomous region under Chinese sovereignty.
