...hunted man was Abu Zubaydah, 31, the Saudi-born Palestinian who helped assemble the inner mechanisms of Osama bin Laden's worldwide terror network. If anyone knows where bin Laden is hiding--or where al-Qaeda sleeper cells are lying dormant inside the U.S.--it is this trusted lieutenant. As al-Qaeda's chief of operations and top recruiter, Zubaydah could provide the names of terrorists around the world and which targets they planned...
...terrorist attacks," this official said. Investigators are also intrigued by a roster taped up on a kitchen wall, which has "Osama" and "Abu Zubaydah" down for unspecified duties.

...After three months in which the hunt for bin Laden has looked nearly hopeless, U.S. authorities now seem convinced that their top terror suspect is hiding in the lawless borderland territory. That conviction may have been bolstered by a cache of documents and computer discs found in Abu Zubaydah's lair in central Pakistan. If intelligence from the Abu Zubaydah raid has added to the U.S. evidence that bin Laden is hiding in the borderlands, Musharraf's decision may get tougher...
