Suspected 9-11 mastermind arrested in Pakistan.(Knight Ridder Newspapers)
Byline: Martin Merzer, Jessica Guynn and Dave Montgomery
WASHINGTON _ The suspected mastermind of the cataclysmic Sept. 11 terror attacks and a decade-long list of other sinister acts was arrested Saturday in Pakistan, officials said.
Government officials and private security analysts called it the most significant arrest thus far in the war against terrorism.
Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, described as Osama bin Laden's field general, was seized with two other alleged terrorists by FBI, CIA and Pakistani agents in a hideout in Rawalpindi, near the capital of Islamabad, authorities said.
A senior U.S. intelligence official said Mohammed was believed to have knowledge of pending terrorist attacks on the United States. When arrested, he carried names and telephone numbers of members of al-Qaida sleeper cells in North America, said the official, who requested anonymity.
Told that Mohammed was in custody, President Bush exclaimed: "That's fantastic," according to the White House.
