From 9/11 Encyclopedia:
Officially Ramzi Binalshibh arranged money transfers to "cell leaders of the September 11th attack" and lived together with Mohammad Atta at the same address in Marienstraße 54 in Hamburg. It was reported, that he tried to get a visa in August 2000 to start a flight license.
After September 11th he was put on an international watch list. Binalshibh was arrested almost exactly one year after the attack in Pakistan on September 11th, 2002, which appeared to have been planned. No new pictures of his face had been released.
Binalshibh was captured at an undisclosed place in the United
States. Instead of this, literally a few hours
before the confirmation of the arrest, Al-Jazeera showed an older propaganda video
with Binalshibh, rendered in front of the burning Twin
Towers.
In the translation of this video, it was claimed, Binalshibh confirmed the White House as the fifth target, but was mentioning a different code name of the Building, than the NSA used in their translations.
In fact Binalshibh, was captured at an unknown time, before September 11th 2002 in Karachi, Pakistan.
A second prisoner "of interest" to U.S intelligence, Umar al-Gharib, was captured in the Karachi raid as well. Al-Gharib is the brother of an al Qaeda leader named Khallad Tawfiq al-Attash -- one of the suspects in the October 2000 bombing of the USS Cole in Yemen (->), which killed 17 U.S. sailors.
