Key Suspect Arrested In Local Attack Probe

Nabil Al-Marabh Was Arrested In Chicago

POSTED: Thursday, September 20, 2001
UPDATED: 10:57 pm EDT September 20, 2001

FBI agents arrested a local man Thursday who they have been looking for in connection to the terrorist attacks.

Nabil Al-Marabh, 34, is reportedly a member of Osama bin Laden's terror network. Officers believe that he is connected to three suspects they arrested inside a Detroit home on Monday. The home was filled with fake identification cards, Local 4 reported.

Police arrested Al-Marabh Wednesday in Justice, Ill., near Chicago.

Officers said that he was also spotted in Three Oaks, Mich., Monday afternoon trying to get a duplicate driver's license.

The suspect was arrested at 11:45 p.m. EST by the FBI and local police. The FBI apparently learned of an address near Midway Airport in Justice and that's where they captured Al-Marbh.

According to his driving record, Al-Marabh (pictured, right) has used a variety of local addresses.

Police are still looking for another man, Local 4 reported. His picture was reportedly found on several fake IDs found inside the Detroit home. Three other men were arrested Monday night and charged with having false identification.

Police found false passports, IDs and diagrams for airport runways. All three men had chauffeur's licenses and one man even had a commercial driving license allowing him to transport explosives, radioactive material and inhalation hazards.

Records show two of the men also lived at that same apartment building as Al-Marabh.
