The United States on May 1 warned airports and pilots to be alert for a potential aerial terrorist attack on the US Consulate in Karachi. The warning issued by the Department of Homeland Security came two days after Pakistani authorities arrested six Al Qaeda suspects they said were planning a terrorist attack in Karachi. "We issued it to the general aviation community asking members to be especially vigilant so that they can take steps to increase security," Homeland Security spokesperson Rachael Sunbarger said. The Consulate in Karachi has been closed to the public since a car bomb exploded outside the building on June 14, 2002, killing 10 persons, including five women.

According to media reports, Pakistani authorities on May 2 handed over three Arab Al Qaeda suspects, including prime suspect in the October 2000-USS Cole bombing, Waleed Muhammad Bin Attash alias Khalid Al-Attash, to the US officials. Although the government is yet to officially confirm the extradition, an unnamed official was quoted as saying that "the foreigners including Al-Attash are not in our custody. They were handed over to the Americans." Bin Attash is a nephew of front ranking Al Qaeda terrorist Khalid Sheikh Muhammad, who was arrested on March 1, 2003, from Rawalpindi. Official sources claimed that Al-Attash and other suspects were not wanted by Pakistan in any criminal case and they were handed over to the US owing to the fact that the suspects were reportedly involved in terrorist acts aimed at the US establishments.
