Hambali, the Qaeda mastermind behind the Bali bombing, had managed to stay one step ahead of authorities for years. Now they've netted Southeast Asia's most dangerous man. Authorities in Thailand almost missed their man. They had been warned that the suspected terrorist known as Hambali was heading their way when he was thought to be in southern China, and were watching for him along the Burmese border. Everywhere he went, he reached out to allies and friends: officials in Bangkok claim he was trying to put together a suicide squad for an attack during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation conference in October, when U.S. President George W. Bush and other world leaders would be visiting the Thai capital. The 39-year-old West Java native has been implicated in planning for the 9/11 attacks, the nightclub bombings that killed 202 people on the island of Bali in October 2002 and numerous other deadly terrorist incidents, including the bombing of the Marriott hotel that killed 12 people in Jakarta on Aug. 5, 2003. |
