Terror suspect not in TT

TOP SOURCES in Police Special Branch said Saudi-born Adnan G El Shukrijumah, who is wanted by the FBI for plotting terrorist attacks in the United States and who is believed to be in possession of a TT passport, is not hiding out in this country.

FBI officers are reportedly liaising with local police as the search intensifies for Shukrijumah, who police say could very well be moving around in a disguise. “From the intelligence we have gathered so far, all indications are that Mr Shukrijumah is not in this country, however as a precautionary measure we have certain plans in place just in case our intelligence proves wrong,” the source said.  Asked what these pre-cautionary measures were, the Special Branch source declined further comment. Efforts to reach acting National Security Minister Franklin Khan and Commissioner of Police Hilton Guy were futile.
