Car bomb suspect who slipped under radar is son of air force chief - Times

What is beyond doubt is that he first came to the US in 1998 as 19-year-old student, the son of an air vice-marshal of the Pakistani Air Force, Baharul Haq, who remains well known as the founder of the Sherdils, the country’s leading military aerobatics team. He acquired two degrees, in computer science and business administration, from small private colleges in Washington and Bridgeport, Connecticut.

“He came from a respectable family and was not even a religious person,” Kayfayatullah Khan said.

Another villager reacted with suspicion to the news emerging from New York. “America is our enemy,” Bashir-ur-Rehman said. “It wants to defame us. The arrest of Faisal is meant to malign a respected family and Pakistan.”
