U.S. government knows of no al-Qaida arrest in Pakistan
WASHINGTON -- Despite numerous news reports that Pakistan Embroidered Fabricshas arrested an American al-Qaida operative in the port city of Karachi, the U.S. government is unaware that anyone affiliated with the terrorist network, American or otherwise, has been captured in Pakistan recently, #xU.S. officials said Monday.
"None of this appears to be fact at this point,google优化," said a U.S. official who asked not to be further identified because the official wasn't authorized to discuss the matter publicly.
U.S. and international news reports that first appeared Sunday quoted unnamed Pakistani intelligence officials as saying Pakistani agents in Karachi had arrested Adam Gadahn, a Californian who had converted to Islam and oversees al-Qaida's propaganda operations.
Gadahn, 31, is the most wanted American member of al-Qaida Embroidered Fabricsand the first U.S. citizen since the 1940s to be charged with treason.
In their stories, McClatchy and The New York Times noted there was uncertainty about the identity of the suspect, with some Pakistani officials giving him different names, including Abu Yahya Mujahdeen al Adam, a Pennsylvania-born militant who is thought to help command fighters in Afghanistan.
The McClatchy story also noted Pakistani officials previously have mistaken the identities of militants they've detained or killed, that some reported deaths and arrests that have never been confirmed and that other reports have proved to be wrong.
By Monday, news reports quoted unnamed Pakistani officials as saying the suspect had been misidentified and was Adam.
The Associated Press #xon Monday quoted White House spokesman Bill Burton as saying President Barack Obama was receiving updates on the reports that an American al-Qaida operative had been arrested in Pakistan,Embroidered Fabrics but that the White House had been unable to confirm the information.
