Pakistani Helped Net Al Qaeda Comrades in Sting -Source

Aug. 6, 2004 — ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Al Qaeda member Mohammad Naeem Noor Khan emailed contacts in Osama bin Laden's network while in custody as part of a sting operation by security agencies, a Pakistani intelligence source said Friday.

A series of arrests in Britain this week resulted from Khan's capture. A high alert for U.S. financial institutions against a possible al Qaeda attack was also attributed to information gathered from the Pakistani computer engineer, who was caught early last month, according to intelligence and government sources.
