ISLAMABAD: Army troops have discovered the passport of a militant linked to two hijackers involved in the 9/11 attacks, during an offensive against terrorists in South Waziristan, a private TV channel said on Thursday. The passport belonging to Said Bahaji, a German of Moroccan origin, was among documents, weapons and literature seized by the military and shown to a group of journalists during an official trip. The channel reported the passport showed the man had arrived in Karachi just days before 9/11. Military spokesman Maj Gen Athar Abbas, who accompanied the reporters on the trip to South Waziristan had no comments to offer. “I haven’t seen the passport. These reporters may have seen it,” he said. Bahaji’s name has appeared in the 9/11 Commission Report. reuters
