Pakistan Arrests Al Qaeda Suspect, Eight Militants Sun Jun 13, 2004 01:16 PM ET
ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Pakistan arrested an al Qaeda suspect with a $1 million reward on his head and eight other militants suspected of ambushing Karachi's military commander last week, the information minister said on Sunday. Information Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed told Reuters that an Arab national, an important member of the al Qaeda network, had been arrested. He was identified as Musaad Aruchi.
"The al Qaeda person is the nephew of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed," the minister said.
Khalid was the alleged mastermind of the September 11, 2001, attacks on the United State and was arrested in a Pakistani army major's house in the city of Rawalpindi near Islamabad last year.
In a separate development, the minister said, eight militants suspected of involvement in an attack on Karachi's army chief had also been arrested.
Gunmen ambushed a convoy escorting Lieutenant-General Ahsan Saleem Hayat on a main road in the volatile port city last Thursday. He escaped unharmed, but 10 people were killed, including his driver.

I wonder if they will turn him over to the US - so he can be put into the same facility as "Uncle Khallid".
He gets the next cell..
Fyi..
Fox is breaking this story now.....I beat them!
Let's make sure we treat them kindly to please the Democrats. /sarcasm>
you did!
Laurie Dhue mistakenly said it was OBL's nephew.
It's time for the Int Red Cross to start worring about his accomodations.(BARF)
Gee, I hope we treat them well. /sarcasm
Put them in a no panty zone. Give them milk and cookies.
FOX is reporting that the terrorists have a video of another beheading of another Jew. [May they rot in hell.] In all honesty, I don't know what he would be doing in that nest of vipers.
really?
I am sure the media, including FNC, is lining up to NOT show it.
Who had the video.....KSM's nephew?
My impression, from what I heard, is that the video hasn't been released yet, that it will be-- thru Al Jazeera, I'm sure.
FOX's correspondent in Israel (that woman, whose name escapes me) didn't have specific details, just that the video of the beheading existed-- the victim someone named "Jacobs."
Bump.
any current kidnap victims that we know of with the name?
Go Mushie & Co. You think Mushareff got a little annoyed when they tried to kill him several times?
Not that I'm aware of. Again, the reporter was short on details.
