Six more held in Pakistan for Times Square plot

ISLAMABAD - Six more people have been arrested in Pakistan for having links with Faisal Shahzad, the prime suspect of the botched Time Square terror plot early this month.

The six suspected have been arrested from different cities, Geo TV reported quoting sources.

Law enforcement agencies are investigating these men, the sources said, adding that the information if any would be shared with the United States.

Shahzad, a Pakistani immigrant who lived in Connecticut and had worked as a financial analyst, was taken into custody May 3 as he tried to flee to his native Pakistan on a flight out of Kennedy International JFK Airport minutes before the plane was to leave for Dubai.
