By Mark Stone, Sky News reporter, in Tripoli Osama bin Laden was a wanted man well before the 9/11 attacks, before the attack on the USS Cole and before the US Embassy bombings in east Africa.
The first international warrant for his arrest was issued in April 1998 following a request not by the Americans or the Europeans, but by Colonel Gaddafi of Libya. On March 16, 1998, five months before the al Qaeda bombings of the US Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, the Libyan Ministry of Justice named Bin Laden as the main suspect in a double murder that had taken place in the Libyan town of Sirte four years earlier. The warrant was forwarded to Interpol in France, where it was formalised on April 15, 1998. In March 1994 a German man named Sinvan Becker and his wife Vera travelled to Libya.
