- <p>The man charged with murdering two CIA employees may be in Pakistan
- </p>
-
- <p> It was an audacious crime. On Jan. 25, someone shot and killed
- two Central Intelligence Agency employees literally at the gate
- of the agency's headquarters in Langley, Virginia. Who was the
- shooter? What was the motive? A breakthrough occurred when the
- roommate of 28-year-old Mir Aimal Kansi reported him missing.
- Kansi's Reston, Virginia, apartment was searched, a Chinese-made
- AK-47 was found, and FBI firearms experts concluded that it
- was the gun that fired cartridge casings recovered at the crime
- scene. Kansi was charged with capital murder and placed on the
- FBI's Ten Most Wanted list. Police had the weapon but needed
- the man. Where was Kansi?
- </p>
- <p> Perhaps in Pakistan. Kansi, a member of a wealthy Pakistani
- family, has reportedly been seen in his hometown of Quetta.
- "We're trying to confirm that he's there," says Fairfax County
- police department spokesperson Robert Wall. "Pakistani officials
- are cooperating in the fullest." Still, the question remains:
- If Kansi did commit the alleged crime, why? No explanation so
- far is satisfactory. Says Wall: "There are a million theories.
- They have to be checked one at a time." Law-enforcement officials
- may have to catch the man to find the motive.
