Islamabad, Oct.26, IRNA -- Pakistan handed over a suspected foreigner
to the U.S. authorities at Karachi in mysterious circumstances in
the early hours of Tuesday, reported "The News" on Friday.
The daily said that there are strong suspicions that he was an
Arab student of Karachi University, with connections to some infamous
organizations.
Quoting sources, the newspaper stated that a Falcon aircraft owned
by the U.S. airforce landed at the Karachi airport at around 01:00
hours to fetch the suspected man.
The aircraft having registration No. N-379 P landed from Amman
and departed at 2.40 am for the same destination, the daily said.
However, it said nothing could be said about the identification and
nationality of the person handed over to the U.S.
The entire operation was so mysterious that all persons involved
in the operation including U.S. troops, were wearing masks. A masked
U.S. trooper was filming the entire operation.
A private service company at the Karachi airport, Chemic Aviation,
provided the airport services to the U.S. aircraft. The wanted person
handed over to the U.S. forces was not a Pakistani national as he was
addressed as a deportee .
No one in the Civil Aviation Authority and Airport Security Force
knew about the details of the operation. Everything was kept in
secret and operated by an agency, the daily explained.
It is for the first that Pakistani authorities have handed over
any wanted person to the U.S. authorities at Karachi airport. There
was some speculation that the person extradited may have been one of
the Arabs arrested recently at Pak-Afghan border at Chaman.
But sources said, the newspaper added, there was no point in
bringing him over to Karachi and to send him through Karachi airport.
The most likely possibility is that an Arab student of
microbiology department of Karachi University, who has been missing
since the start of this month could be the man deported.
Jamil Qasim Saeed Mohammad belonged to Aiz, city of Yemen. He
came to Karachi in 1993 from Sana. Just before he went missing,
Interior Ministry had asked the university administration to send all
the information about the man.
The daily said his connection with any terrorist organization or
if and why he was deported could not be confirmed. |
