Terror investigators hunting the London bombing mastermind are to question a suspected Al Qaeda planner held in Pakistan.
British-born Haroon Rashid Aswad(Aswat) was seized at a religious school with a suicide bomb belt, explosives and GBP 13,000 in cash.
Security sources in the Pakistani capital, Islamabad, claim he had up to 20 telephone conversations with London bombers Mohammad Sidique Khan and Shehzad Tanweer. One of these is believed to have been just hours before the blasts.
The UK's DAILY MAIL reports on Thursday: Security sources say he trained at an Afghan camp which was visited by Osama Bin Laden and that he is linked to two of Bin Laden's planners and an Al Qaeda suspect held in America.
U.S. investigators have been told that Aswad attended the Khalden camp in Afghanistan, favoured by foreign terror trainees. British shoe bomber Richard Reid is among those who attended the camp and it has been reported that London bomber Khan also went there.

Well, I guess Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch will have to send representatives to observe all interrogations of this scumbag. We wouldn't want the Brits to muss his hair or put panties on his head.....
Give him 3 square meals a day and promise him that he will never experience discomfort in any way and I'm sure he'll come around to tell the Brits all he knows.... out of pure gratitude for their gentle approach.
