Pakistan holds alleged British citizen, another foreigner for al-Qaida links
PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AP) - Authorities have arrested two al-Qaida suspects, including an alleged British citizen, in separate raids this week in northwestern Pakistan, intelligence officials said.
It wasn't clear if either of the arrests were linked to the May 2 capture in northwestern Pakistan of Abu Faraj al-Libbi, reputedly al-Qaida's No. 3 leader.
The first man, identified only as Shahzad, was arrested late Sunday in a raid by intelligence agents and police on a house in Shabqadar town, 25 kilometres north of the city of Peshawar. Officers also seized three computers, CDs and some documents, local police official Saleh Mohammed said on Wednesday.
An intelligence official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Shahzad was a "suspected al-Qaida facilitator" who said he had dual Pakistani and British citizenship. He said officials were investigating the man's claims.
The British High Commission could not confirm the arrest, and said it was looking into the report.
Mohammed said Shahzad had remnants of shackles around his ankles and wounds on his knees, but the police official refused to speculate on whether the suspect may have escaped from custody somewhere.
The second arrest was made Monday when intelligence agents stopped a vehicle on Peshawar's outskirts, said another intelligence official, who also declined to be named. He didn't reveal the identity or nationality of the suspect, but said he was a foreigner suspected of al-Qaida links.

Well, this sounds good...if it's not a catch and release situation.
