Pakistan publishes suspects photos in major terror probe
Pakistan released newspaper notices showing six terror suspects including Libyan Abu Faraj al Libbi and Amjad Hussain Farooqi among Pakistan’s "Most Wanted" linked to Lashkar-e-Jhangvi. A 20 million rupee reward was offered for al Libbi, Hussain, and four others as authorities say al Qaida aided two plots against President Musharraf and one against prime minister-designate Shaukat Aziz. The ads urge informants to contact officials, with details in English and Urdu.
