U.S. capture of terror suspect al-Libi seen in rare video
WASHINGTON -- A video obtained and published by The Washington Post
Monday shows the capture Anas al-Libi, one of the FBI's most wanted terror suspects, who was grabbed in Tripoli, Libya, last fall.
The next day al-Libi's family
described the attack, which was presumably recorded by a security camera. A few dings and one broken window were the
only evidence of the violent confrontation. By then, al-Libi was being interrogated aboard a U.S. Navy ship in the Mediterranean.
From the ship, he was taken to New York, where, 15 years after, he is awaiting trial for the embassy bombings. He has pleaded innocent to the charges against him.
American commandos have been carrying out kill or capture raids virtually every night in Afghanistan and before that in Iraq. But it is extremely rare to ever see them in action, especially in a country like Libya, where the U.S. is not at war.
