Yesterday, Saudi Arabia released a list of 85 "most-wanted" terrorists. The list includes 11 former Guantánamo detainees who were placed in Saudi Arabia's rehabilitation program. One of the terrorists on the list operates a major al Qaeda network on Iranian soil.
According to an anonymous Saudi security official cited by the New York Times, Abdullah al Qarawi is a Saudi who has been operating inside Iran for more than three years. Qarawi is reportedly known as "the Star" and has "more than 100 Saudis working for him in Iran, where they move about freely," the Saudi official said. Qarawi "is in charge of al Qaeda's operations in the Persian Gulf and Iran, and of bringing new members into Afghanistan."
