Al Qaeda leader taken
to Indian Ocean base

Abu Zubaydah, a top aide of Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, has been transferred to the remote British island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean, Time magazine reported on Sunday.

The weekly -- quoting a source familiar with the operation -- reported that Abu Zubaydah was transferred to the base from a US naval ship.

A Palestinian, Abu Zubaydah was believed to be in charge of Al Qaeda operations and its top recruiter, roles that make him a potential gold mine of information.
