A top anti-terrorism official says Pakistan will likely deport the main suspect in the 2002 Bali bombings to Indonesia.
Umar
Patek had been on the run nearly a decade when he was arrested in
January in Abbottabad. That's the same town where al-Qaida leader Osama
bin Laden was killed in May.
Patek is a deputy commander of al-Qaida's Southeast Asian affiliate Jemaah Islamiyah.
Indonesia's
anti-terrorism agency head said Monday negotiations are under way with
Pakistan to deport the 41-year-old suspect to his home country. Ansyaad
Mbai says he's confident it will happen, but isn't sure when.
The Bali bombings killed 202 people, and many of them were foreigners. AP
