Three Pakistani militants claimed the Wall Street Journal correspondent Daniel Pearl was murdered by an Arab two days after he tried to escape. The claim could influence the appeal by British militant Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, who was sentenced to death for the murder.
Two investigators, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the information was gleaned from three men who led police in May to a body that was identified by DNA tests as Pearl.
The three men were arrested as the trial of four other alleged kidnappers was under way. Naeem Bukhari, Fazal Karim and Zubair Chishti have not been charged in the Pearl case and Pakistani authorities have not even acknowledged publicly that they are in custody.
