Arabia
SAUDIS HAND OVER YANK TERROR TRIO
2003-10-15
Love those New York Post headlines. EFL:
Saudi Arabia recently handed over at least three American fugitives wanted on terrorism charges, U.S. officials said yesterday. The case was shrouded in secrecy yesterday, and U.S. officials would not identify the three American citizens. But a U.S. official told The Post one of the fugitives was recently convicted on terrorism charges in Virginia.
So, it wasn’t a recent transfer. It might be these guys:
In Washington, a Saudi official noted that three Americans were arrested this past summer and turned over to U.S. authorities. The three - Seifullah Chapman, Khwaja Mahmood Hasan and Sabri Benkhala — were charged with conspiring to join a Muslim extremist terror group blamed for thousands of deaths in the disputed Kashmir territory of India and Pakistan. It was not immediately clear whether these three men were the terror suspects the interior minister was referring to in his remarks.
The transfer was disclosed by Saudi Interior Minister Prince Nayef in remarks published in the Saudi Press Agency yesterday. A U.S. foreign-policy official confirmed there was a recent transfer of a handful of terror suspects but provided few other details. The FBI has several cases pending against suspected terrorists who may have been plotting U.S. attacks, and some are believed to have fled before they could be arrested.
There’s one of the Portland Seven still at large and I believe one of the NY Lakawannabe group, if he’s still alive.

#2  Don "the chipmunk" Zimmer as well. He's pretty fiesty though, I wouldn't send the religious police after him. Go with the SWAT unit.
