There's also a guy named Khwaja mentioned residing in Pakistan who was PAF and then civilian pilot who's been mentioned.....Used a a go between and contact by Pearl and Ijaz in setting up Pearl's fatal trip to Karachi.

The source was a website named SAAG - Indian so obviously undependable ;> www.saag.org....An article published earlier this year.....Let me find it and you can evaluate it.

"a retired Air Force officer who had worked in the ISI till 1988 and who was reportedly in touch with Osama bin Laden,"

Here's the article...
