Latest News Updates The United States is also in "close contact" with Pakistan trying to find out the details of the time spend by Times Square failed bombing suspect Faisal Shahzad in that country, White House has said.We are in close contact with them and working with them on a number of issues surrounding this, the White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said on Tuesday. We are in the middle of an active and ongoing investigation.
Part of that active and ongoing investigation is to examine the time that this individual spent in Pakistan, Gibbs said at his daily news briefing in response to a question.
The FBI in its compliant told a New York court that Shahzad conceded to investigators during interrogation that he recently spent five months in Pakistan. Shahzad was taken into custody at the John F Kennedy International Airport on May 3 when he was about flee from the country.
Gibbs said it is too early to say if he was acting alone or he was part of an international terrorist network. It is an ongoing investigation, and I don't have anything further on it, he said.
