Default Wired Iraqi man questioned at L.A. airport

Wired Iraqi man [with "artificial magnetic anus"?] questioned at L.A.
airport
Reuters ^ | 03-06-07

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Officials detained an Iraqi man during a
security scare at Los Angeles International airport on Tuesday but said
a suspicious object found in a body cavity search did not pose a threat.

The man, identified by law enforcement officials as Fadhel al-Maliki,
35, was detained at passenger screening at the airport just before 6
a.m. on Tuesday morning.

The bomb squad was called as a precaution and authorities said they
found wires in his clothing and a magnet inside a lower body cavity.

[a magnet in his Lower Body Cavity???

Could it simply be his "Artificial Magnetic Anus"? -auz]


The man was preparing to board a US Airways flight to Philadelphia.

The flight left without the passenger but with his luggage aboard.
[huh ??? -auz]

It made an unscheduled landing in Las Vegas where the plane was
thoroughly searched but nothing was found
