ONE of the suspected masterminds of the July 7 London terror bombings has been holed up in Zimbabwe, reports said last night.
The Associated Press reported Thursday night that Haroon Rashid Aswat, 31, had been arrested by Zambian authorities after entering the country from Zimbabwe.
British investigators pursuing the terrorists whose carefully planned attacks on London's transport network killed 56 people say Aswat had telephone contact with some of the July 7 bombers.
It was not immediately clear how long Aswat had been living in Zimbabwe, or where he was living, although a Zambian official who spoke on condition of anonymity to the AP confirmed the arrest.
The British Foreign Office could only say they were were seeking access to a Briton reported to be in custory in Zambia, but would not identify him or say if he was connected to the terror bombings.
A British resident with Indian descent, Aswat reportedly interested investigators when they discovered that about 20 calls had been placed from his cellphone to some of the four suspected bombers.
Zimbabwean authorities have not commented on the arrest.
