The investigation into an alleged plot to bomb the city's subway moved forward on several fronts Friday as a third suspect was arrested in Iraq and authorities looked into whether a fourth person had traveled to New York as part of the scheme, officials said.
A law enforcement official familiar with the case said the man's trip to New York was described by an informant who had spent time in Afghanistan and proved reliable in past investigations.
"He's been a source of multiple correct information in the past," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the continuing investigation. "Does that mean a fourth person he identified is in fact in New York? We don't know that."
Does anyone know what ever happened to that "19" figure from earlier?

Question for the editorial board at the NY Times:
Would it be okay this time if we put panties on the suspect's head, if that will get him to talk? How about a setup invoving a Sears Diehard, conducting jelly, and the suspect's genitalia?
THIS IS HIM!!! THIS IS THE FOURTH GUY!
Conducting jelly? What are you, a girly man? :-)
Too bad Lt.Col. Shaffer is not allowed to have Able Danger (data mining)in operation now. This is exactly the kind of terrorists they sought out and were successful in finding.
At least Bloomie does not appear to be carrying the Times in that picture. There's one thing in his favor.
Al Qaeda must have read Joel C. Rosenberg's books.

Jeez mon should they really be releasing all this information about the source?
Thanks fanfan. (o:
Someone pointed this out up the thread, but there has been a subtraction from the original info. First reports indicated 19, and now they are talking about 4. Kind of reminds me of the "5 injured" - then missing - then 5 accomplices resurfacing in the reporting of the Norman Bombing.
