Must be quite a coincidence that the authorities go out of their way to tell us there isn't one.

It must be another isolated incident. Nothing to see here folks, move along.

Indeed! Thanks for the ping, btw.

This is CNN's version of the Sabash Gurung/Ayub Ali Khan connection:

...CNN has learned that Gurung gave the same West Hollywood Avenue apartment address in Chicago as one of those listed for Ayub Ali Khan, who is being held as a material witness in the September 11 attacks along with another man, Mohamed Jaweed Azmath.

The FBI statement played down the significance of a possible connection, and the superintendent of the apartment building said Gurung never actually lived there.

Khan and Azmath were arrested September 12 in Fort Worth, Texas, on an Amtrak train heading to San Antonio.

Found in their possession were $5,500 cash, two flat box-cutter type knives and hair dye. Azmath also had copies of numerous passport photos.

The hijackers of the planes that crashed into the twin towers of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon used similar box cutters as weapons, authorities said.

On the day of the attacks, Khan and Azmath were on a TWA flight from Newark to San Antonio. The flight was diverted to St. Louis when the FAA closed the skies to commercial aircraft after the terrorist hijackings and attacks.

Khan and Azmath lived in Jersey City, New Jersey. But a records check by CNN found a Chicago address for Khan sandwiched between two New Jersey addresses used by him. The Chicago address is for the same apartment building listed by Gurung.

A government source told CNN that Khan never actually lived or worked in the Chicago apartment.

But, the source said, "many phone calls were made to and from that apartment, and credit card bills were paid from that address..." --CNN
