American counter-terrorism analysts have described seizing important lists of al Qaeda members from Al Qaida-associated safehouses in Rawalpindi.[1] Over one hundred Guantanamo captives had their continued extrajudicial detention justified because they had stayed in a Taliban or Al Qaeda safe house or guest house.

Several captives faced the allegation that their name, or known aliases were named on a list captured from al Qaeda associated safe houses in Rawalpindi in March 2003.[2]

"To be sure, unlike many of his colleagues who were being captured right, left and center or targeted by drones because of their irresistible penchant for using cell phones - which projected their locations into the ether, as it were, where electronic detectives from the CIA watched and listened - KSM was able to roam free for so long because he put his faith only in personal couriers and trusted friends. Yet in the end it was one of these putative confidants who would betray him, a fellow Balochi and a long-time family acquaintance, who had out of the blue contacted the agency a year earlier with the expectation of laying claim to the $25 million reward. It took that long for "Balochi," as the CIA dubbed its walk-in informant, to finally arrange a meeting with KSM, who was then holed up in a safe house in the Westbridge district of Rawalpindi, one of the city's nicer neighborhoods."
