The Pakistani media said, quoting a New York Times report, that the Al Qaeda terrorist network of Osama bin Laden was attempting to regroup in remote sanctuaries in Pakistan near the Afghan border. The report was based on newly detected Internet traffic among Al Qaeda cadres, including intercepted e-mail messages. US officials have reportedly indicated that they had discovered the existence of new Web sites and Internet communications that are a part of an effort to reconstitute the Al Qaeda. The report also pointed out that some of the communication activity was centred around villages in Baluchistan, along the Pakistan-Afghan border. American officials reportedly also said that some of these villages in Baluchistan, and perhaps others in the Jammu and Kashmir in India, could be serving as new sanctuaries for Al Qaeda cadres.

Pakistani media sources quoted a report in the New York Times and indicated that approximately 1,800 Al Qaeda cadres and more than 3,500 Taliban fighters might have slipped into Pakistan since November 2001. Quoting Pakistani intelligence sources, the report said only about 600 have been detained by Pakistani authorities. Of those detained, about 280 have been handed over to the US, but no one was a top leader of either the Al Qaeda or the Taliban. Pakistani officials have reportedly said that the flow of Taliban and Al Qaeda cadres into the country was at its peak in December 2001 and early January 2002 and had since declined considerably.

23 Kharoti tribesmen praying at a Sufi shrine for the release of an al-Qaeda supporter were killed in air raids by American planes in rural Afghanistan, bordering Pakistan, reports said, quoting local residents, on March 9. The tribesmen were holding prayers to secure the release of Macha Dad, a tribal leader in Landai Doog village, Paktika province, bordering Pakistan. "Macha Dad was a very rich man in the area and lots of Arabs and Pakistanis used to visit him and stay with him," a tribal elder was quoted as saying. He said American forces suspected that Macha Dad was providing refuge to al-Qaeda terrorists, or possibly the Taliban chief Mulla Mohammad Omar.

According to a news report, Pakistani investigators are reportedly probing an Al Qaeda connection to the March 17 terrorist attack on a Islamabad church in which five persons were killed and 40 others injured. The Al Qaeda connection is being suspected after investigators concluded consequent to the initial probe that the target of attack were American diplomats and not the Christian community. The investigators reportedly discerned that the attack was not aimed at killing Christians in general as there were more churches in Islamabad which could have been a much easier target. Senior Pakistani officials have pointed out that the incident may also be a reaction to reports regarding Omar Sheikh’s extradition to the US. The probe team is also investigating the reported regular presence of Iraqi, Iranian, Afghan, and several Pakistani worshippers in the church which, primarily, is meant for the diplomatic community.

Sultan Bashiruddin Mahmood, the Pakistani nuclear scientist under investigation for his alleged links to Osama bin Laden’s Al Qaeda terror network has admitted to meeting both bin Laden and Taliban leader Mullah Omar. Sultan Bashiruddin Mahmood, former Director General of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC), who formed the UmmahTamir-e-Nau (UTN) in March 2000 in an interview to Pakistani daily The News on March 18 said "I have never been in contact with any local militants or the al-Qaeda terrorists. But I did meet Mulla Omar, members of his council of ministers as well as Osama bin Laden only to seek their co-operation in pursuing the goals of my organisation". According to him, "I met Osama to seek $3 million for manpower and land development projects in Afghanistan but he refused any help saying all of his accounts were frozen.". replying to a question on the kind of nuclear technology Laden possesses, he said, "I have no idea. It is highly sophisticated technology, not child's play. You require hi-tech storage, launching and delivery devices."

Two cadres of Osama bin Laden’s Al Qaeda terror network were killed and six others, including two police personnel were injured during a crackdown jointly conducted by the American Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and local police in Faisalabad on March 28. 65 other cadres were arrested in the crackdown which continued on March 29. According to media reports, on a tip-off that some Al Qaeda cadres were hiding in Faisalabad, a joint team of FBI and personnel of law enforcement agencies raided six areas in the city and arrested 46 people, including 19 foreigners. 16 Arab nationals were arrested during a raid in Faisal Town in Faisalabad on March 29. Sources indicated that the Arab nationals attempted to resist the arrest and injured a police personnel and in the ensuing encounter, the raiding team opened fire and killed Abdul Hasnat, who reportedly belonged to Syria. The encounter also left four others including three foreigners injured.

A police spokesperson said in Lahore that the arrested members were dangerous terrorists belonging to different religious groups. Names and whereabouts of the arrested cadres are being kept secret, he added. Media reports have indicated that one of the arrested cadres, who was also injured in the operation, is Abu Zubaida, second-in-command of the Al Qaeda network. Official sources, while admitting that the man had close resemblance with Abu Zubaida, declined to confirm the report, saying the identity would be established after interrogating the man. Source added that more raids had been stopped owing to the possibility that Al Qaeda cadres may have gone underground fearing arrests. The raids, according to official sources, came as police investigated links between terrorist groups and the March 17 grenade attack on a church that killed five persons, including a US Embassy employee and her daughter.

A media report quoting a senior intelligence official indicated that Pakistan has handed over to US authorities 20 arrested Arab Al Qaeda cadres. Meanwhile investigators assisted by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) have begun interrogating suspected Al Qaeda and Taliban cadres arrested during raids in Faisalabad on March 28. These Arab cadres are expected to be flown to the US naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where hundreds of Al Qaeda and Taliban prisoners are being detained. Among those handed over was Abu Zubaydah, a key deputy of Osama bin Laden. Media reports said that Abu Zubaydah, escaped to Pakistan after the erstwhile Taliban regime in Afghanistan collapsed and took operational control of the Al Qaeda. US authorities suspect that Zubaydah played a major role in various Al Qaeda operations, including the September 11, 2001 multiple terrorist attacks and the ‘millennium plot’ to bomb Los Angeles International Airport in late 1999.
