Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the suspected mastermind of Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks in the United States, was arrested Saturday in Pakistan, a senior Pakistan government source told The Associated Press. Mohammed, who is on the FBI's most wanted list, was among three people arrested in Rawalpindi, near the Pakistani capital of Islamabad, the official said. U.S. officials regard Mohammed as a key al-Qaida lieutenant and organizer of the terror mission that sent hijacked passenger jets crashing into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania field, killing more than 3,000 people. Mohammed, 37, has not been charged in the Sept. 11 attacks, but he has been charged in a 1995 terror plot. He is one of the FBI's most-wanted terror suspects, and the U.S. government is offering up to $25 million for information leading to his capture. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A22489-2003Mar1.html Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the suspected mastermind of the September 11 attacks, will be extradited to the United States, Pakistan said after his arrest on Saturday. "Right now, I can't say whether Mohammed will be moved tomorrow or next week," Information Minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmad told Reuters. "It could be next week, it could be tomorrow." A senior U.S. official in Washington described the capture during a raid in Pakistan early on Saturday as "extraordinarily significant" because he was critical to planning future assaults on the United States. "He's the senior-most al Qaeda guy to be captured yet," the official told Reuters. "He was critical to not only the planning for the September 11, 2001, attacks but also is central to the planning for future attacks," he said. xponent Cause For Celebration Maru rob My love and I, we escaped, we left no trace For they had raped both body and soul ...
