"In Pakistan Dead Men Tell No Tales"
On Sunday (Sept, 26, '04), Pakistan announced that paramilitary police had killed Amjad Farooqi, a suspected top al-Qaeda operative wanted in connection with the kidnapping and murder of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl two years ago, as well as for two assassination attempts against Musharraf last December
Asia Times Online contacts, however, are adamant that Farooqi was in fact arrested some months ago, and that the “incident” resulting in his death in the southern Pakistani city of Nawabshah was in fact stage-managed by Pakistani security forces.
