 Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf said yesterday top Al-Qaeda terror suspect Abu Faraj Al-Libbi had been handed over to the United States for prosecution, even though the man is believed behind two assassination attempts against him and could have received the death penalty here.
| "For us? Oh, thankew! You shouldn't have!" |
| They can give him the death penalty when we're done squeezing him. |
"I presume that he may have been deported already to the United States," Musharraf told a CNN conference in Atlanta, speaking via video hookup from Islamabad, adding till three days ago Al-Libbi was in Pakistan. Musharraf said Al-Libbi had been cooperating but had not provided any useful information on the whereabouts of terror mastermind Osama Bin Laden, and that Pakistan has no interest in keeping him. |
