Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the suspected mastermind of the Sept.11 terrorist attacks, was arrested Saturday in Pakistan. Mohammed was one of three men arrested in a 3 a.m. raid in Rawalpindi, a city near Islamabad. Mohammed, 37, is one of the FBI's most-wanted terror suspects, and the U.S. government had offered up to $25 million for information leading to his capture. However, Pakistani police and intelligence officials say FBI agents have been involved in nearly every important terror arrest in Pakistan. The Pakistani government says it has handed over more than 420 al-Qaida and Taliban suspects to U.S. custody.
