Azahari studied in Britain: University<\/p>\n
ENGLAND: One of the suspected masterminds of the October 2002
\nBali bombings which killed 202 people obtained a doctorate in
\nBritain, the university confirmed on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Azahari bin Husin, 48, believed to be a key leader in the Al-
\nQaeda-linked Jamaah Islamiyah Islamic extremist group and the
\norganization's top explosives expert, obtained a degree in land
\nmanagement from the University of Reading, the establishment said
\nin a statement.<\/p>\n
"Azahari Husin, wanted in connection with the Bali bombing,
\nstudied for a doctorate at the University of Reading in the late
\n1980s in what was then the Department of Land Management, which
\nis now the Department of Real Estate and Planning," it said.<\/p>\n
"In 1990, he submitted his Ph D thesis, which was in the
\nsubject area of real estate. The broad topic of his thesis was
\nhouse prices in Malaysia.<\/p>\n
"When Azahari Husin was at Reading, he appeared to be a
\ncompletely normal student. It is not thought he maintained any
\ncontact with the University once he had completed his thesis."<\/p>\n
Investigators looking into Saturday's bombing in Bali that
\nkilled at least 22 people and wounded more than 100 said it
\nlooked like the work of the Malaysian-born Husin and Jamaah
\nIslamiyah. -- AFP<\/p>",
