US has frozen 139 million dollars in suspected terrorist funds - US expert
VIENNA (AFP) Jun 07, 2004
 US authorities have frozen some 139 million dollars (114 million euros) since the September 11, 2001 terror attacks on the United States from people or organizations suspected of financing international terrorism, a US expert said here Monday.

Jimmy Gurule, who served from 2001 to 2003 as US under secretary for enforcement tasked with tracking financial assets of terrorists, said bank accounts of 368 people or organizations had been frozen by Washington, including those of 23 charities which he claimed were also funding terrorist groups.

Gurule said Osama bin Laden's Al-Qaeda network, which claimed responsibility for the September 11 attacks, still had the capability of mounting an attack of this magnitude.
