Beware Al Qaeda women
New York Daily News ^ | 4/25/03 | AP

WASHINGTON - The FBI is telling law enforcement agencies nationwide to be aware that Al Qaeda may be using women to carry messages, handle financial transactions and provide other logistical support.

The FBI's weekly bulletin to 18,000 state and local police agencies follows last month's global alert for Aafia Siddiqui, a former Boston woman wanted for Al Qaeda links.

Authorities believe Siddiqui could be a fixer - someone with knowledge of America who can support Al Qaeda and help get things done.

She has not been charged with any crimes in the U.S.

"Law enforcement agencies should remain alert to the potential that women may be used to facilitate Al Qaeda financial transactions and should report suspicious activity to the nearest Joint Terrorism Task Force," the April 23 FBI bulletin states.
