Pakistani student insists he is innocent



Tom Maher, Santiago Times
Mohamed Saif Ur Rehman (28), a student of Spanish and Hotel Management in Santiago, was visiting the U.S. embassy on Monday to request a work visa to the United States when the alarm of an explosives detector went off. The student denied any connection to unauthorized materials.

U.S Ambassador to Chile Paul E. Simons told the Santiago Times that after embassy security officials detected the explosive residue on the Pakistani man "the case was turned over to Chilean police." “The U.S. Embassy keeps close contact to Chilean law enforcement," said Simon.


Rehman had been living in Chile four months and arrived at the embassy at 15.00 p.m. on Monday. Security officials contacted a special Chilean police unit (Gope de Carabineros), which then sent agents with a detection dog that reacted immediately at smelling the student.

A second test with a detection machine by the police had the same result. The possible presence of explosive residue was established on the student’s hands, pockets, cell phone and his documents.

Chile's National Intelligence Agency (ANI) is investigating whether the man has ties to any international terrorism networks. No such evidence has yet been found.

On Monday at midnight the Spanish student was interrogated for the first time at a police station in Las Condes. Though he speaks Spanish, the man opted to give his version of the story in English. The Chilean police intelligence agency, Dipolcar, also interrogated the suspect.

What is most worrying, said investigation sources, is that explosive residue was found in the suspect's bag, suggesting he tried to transport a significant amount if dangerous substances.

The man was carrying 300,000 in Chilean Pesos (US$600) and several credit cards when he was detained.

He was transferred to el Centro de Justicia de Santiago on Tuesday afternoon and booked for violating Chile’s arms and explosives laws.

Mohammad Saif Ur Rehman was born in Islamabad, Pakistan, and arrived in Chile in January 2010. Police say he was staying in Chile legally and that there are no international alerts or charges against him.

The student was doing an internship at a Santiago hotel and lived in a student residence in the center of town.
