Pakistan holds British al Qaeda suspect
2005-05-18
Pakistan security forces have arrested a British national on suspicion of having links with al Qaeda, security officials said on Wednesday. The man, who identified himself only as Shehzad during interrogation, was arrested four days ago in Shabqadar, a village on the outskirts of the main northwestern city of Peshawar, a security official told Reuters. "We suspect him to be an al Qaeda member," said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. He gave no other details.

Security officials told Reuters that Shehzad, 25, was originally from London and arrived in Pakistan in March 2003. They doubt Shehzad is his real name, adding that his Pakistani national identity card listed an address in the southern city of Hyderabad. But during interrogations, it was found he never visited Hyderabad. ...
No doubt his real name's Trevor or Clive...

#3  May I suggest we repatriate Clive's immediate family, as well, Howard? And, if/when the next time it happens again, the whole tribe goes home, including the ones born here. Maybe it's time to look at questioning/eliminating dual-citizenship as well, but methinks that'll be too much for the sponsors of the British system. Too pre-occupied with repo'ing all those properties they just sold, to worry about giving Home Grown Terror an attitude to deal with.
