Al Qaeda man held in Faisalabad

LAHORE, Oct 25: Pakistani authorities arrested a foreign Al Qaeda suspect in Faisalabad on Saturday, an intelligence official said. The Arab-speaking national is believed to be an important member of Al Qaeda with bounty on his head, the official told Reuters but gave no further details.

The arrest took place in a raid in Faisalabad on information gleaned from interrogation of three Al Qaeda suspects, two of them Yemeni nationals, arrested in Faisalabad on Tuesday.

The three had fled from a tribal area bordering Afghanistan after Pakistan army swooped on Al Qaeda suspects on Oct 2 killing at least eight suspected militants and arresting 18.

Intelligence officials have said they are trying to track down an Egyptian-born Canadian, Ahmed Said Khdar, alias Abur Abdur Rehman, a suspected Al Qaeda financier who escaped the military operation near the Afghan border town of Angor Adda. -Reuters
