The local police chief in Sargodha, Usman Anwar speaks to The Associated Press, Thursday, Dec. 10, 2009 in Sargodha, Pakistan. Five young American Muslims arrested in Pakistan met with representatives of an al-Qaida-linked group and asked for training but were turned down because they lacked references from trusted militants, a Pakistani law enforcement official said Thursday. Another senior officer said the men wanted to fight jihad, or holy war, in northwestern Pakistan and against American troops in Afghanistan.
