[Khan and Azmath] had listed Chicago addresses among others.

Good catch, that September 18 Sun-Times article.

I noticed the FBI agent's statement proclaiming "no connection" has Gurung's name spelled differently:

"..Our investigation - has not found any link between the fellow in custody here in Chicago - Sabush Gerrung - and anyone else connected to any other terrorist activities..."

Elsewhere the guy's name is spelled "Sabash Gurung."

What's with the FBI? Is this creative spelling?

I noticed that too, but I thought it was probably just a typo from when beacon typed the article in. Is that right, or was it an FBI misspelling?

New related thread on FR: Four held in UK airport alert (on flight from U.S., had knives, mace, and stun gun)

Reminds me -- there was an overseas hijacking a few years ago that may have been the dry run for 9/11, as I remember the hijackers used small knifes and stun guns.

Knifes and stun guns -- that's the MO.

Also regrads the name, obviously it's a phoentic spelling, and likely Sabash himself used variants from document to document.
