Gujrat is the stronghold of Pakistan’s current prime minister Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain. It was also the place where Pakistani security forces arrested 13 suspected al Qaeda terrorists after a long gunfight. Yet again, al Qaeda suspects have been arrested from an urban area.
More reason to believe then, that the hunt for Bin Laden and his top acolytes must concentrate these, their more likely haunts, than on red herrings and wild geese in Waziristan.
