Bin Laden 'alive and in Pakistan'

Pervez Musharraf told reporters that interrogations of al-Qaeda operatives and technological evidence indicate bin Laden is still alive. Mucharraf was asked if he knows the whereabouts of bin Laden and he said he didn't, but he wish he did. The top al-Qaeda members and bin Laden are more likely to be in Pakistan than in Afghanistan. It is believed that al-Qaeda members feel more safe in Pakistan. No major al-Qaeda figures have been caught or killed in Afghanistan since 2002, but over a dozen members have been caught or killed in Pakistan. One of these men, Amjad Hussain Farooqi, was killed in an early morning raid on Monday. Farooqi has been acused of being involved in a spate of attacks. Farooqi was worth $34,000. http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/asiapcf/09/27/pakistan.musharraf.binladen/index.html
