Rashid Rauf has been taken into custody:
U.S. authorities say the British ringleader of the plot has been identified and is in custody in Pakistan along with two of his co-conspirators.But five others still haven't been found and the FBI has about two hundred agents looking for them here. Not a great time to be thinking about flying.Authorities say Rashid Rauf was essentially running the plot by remote control from Pakistan. Authorities have been able to track his phone calls back to London and wire transfers of money intended to pay for the suicide bombers' plane tickets.
The suspected terrorists had planned to be on flights out of London today and tomorrow for a dry run of their plot had the plot not been disrupted.
