Always a good sign when you nab SOB's in this manner. For a variety of reasons.

From Fox News:

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,192035,00.html
Pakistani anti-terror police commandos on Monday arrested two Afghans and an Arab, suspected to be Al Qaeda

...leaving one of to-be-determined (possibly Pakistani?) nationality and one escapee.
~~~~~~~

From India's New Kerala:

"The four (suspects) are of Arab and Afghan origin and are wanted by Pakistan and the US in various terror attacks," a police official told IANS on condition of anonymity.

http://www.newkerala.com/news2.php?action=fullnews&id=44080

So this one has all four of them as Afghan/Arab, and they were definitely known terrorists, on the radar screens of Pakistan and America.

And from Afghanistan, the gem:

Ex-Taliban envoy, al-Qaeda suspects arrested in Peshawar

KABUL, Apr 18 (Pajhwok Afghan News): Pakistani secret agencies have arrested former Taliban ambassador to Pakistan Maulvi Saeedur Rehman Haqqani and four suspected al-Qaeda elements in two separate raids in the border town of Peshawar.

Quoting reliable sources, a widely circulated Pakistani English daily Tuesday reported that Saeedur Rehman Haqqani was arrested by secret agencies three days back while on way from Peshawar to Bannu. He was immediately shifted to Islamabad, where he is under investigations, said the sources.

Haqqani served as Taliban ambassador to Pakistan for a couple of months. After the ouster of Taliban in November 2001, he was residing in Bannu. He had reportedly disassociated himself from his former colleagues, said the sources.

Rumours are that two other colleagues of Haqqani, Qari Sibghatullah and Maulvi Inqeyadi were also arrested by the security agencies along with him.

Separately, the personnel of secret agencies arrested four alleged al-Qaeda men in the Zangali area, south of Peshawar on Monday. The four suspects were arrested by the personnel of secret agencies and CID police.

The law-enforcers were told that some alleged al-Qaeda men were coming from Kohat in a car bearing registration number STK 2780. As the security personnel signaled the car to stop, the driver accelerated. Later, during a chase, the security personnel succeeded to burst tyres of the car and the four people were arrested. Two of the arrested people were wearing veils, witnesses said.

Had the car license plate number -- now that's some good intel! :-)

From DAWN: http://www.dawn.com/2006/04/18/top6.htm

ISLAMABAD, April 17: An alleged Al Qaeda militant of Turkish origin captured two months back in South Waziristan was handed over to his home country on Monday.

Pakistani authorities captured Mohammad Yousaf on January 28 suspecting him of being an Al Qaeda militant and handed him over to Turkish authorities after an investigation which lasted two months.

Another suspected militant, who was captured in Lahore, is under investigation.

Pravda in Russia says there were only four terrorists in this Peshawar raid. One escaped, leaving three prisoners (two Afghans and an Arab).

7th runaway al-Qaida prisoner surrenders

SANAA, Yemen, April 18 (UPI) -- A seventh al-Qaida runaway from the 23 prisoners who fled the central intelligence prison in Sanaa February has surrendered to Yemeni authorities.

Daily al-Rai quoted a security source as saying Tuesday that "the seventh runaway al-Qaida member surrendered Monday in an operation that appears to have been preceded by negotiations."

The source said security forces raided an apartment in a neighborhood south of Sanaa where they seized Zakaria Yafii, who made no attempt to resist arrest. He was taken back to the central intelligence prison which he fled 75 days ago in an operation still shrouded in mystery and suspicion...
