Terror suspect was drug dealer, then informant

One June day in 1988, customs agents at the Frankfurt, Germany, airport pulled aside an intense and striking young man waiting to get on a plane back home to Philadelphia.
They suspected he had heroin in his suitcase. They were right - two kilos' worth from Pakistan, hidden under a false bottom. He wasn't tough to crack: Before the day was out, Daood "David" Gilani decided to save his own skin, agreeing to betray his drug-dealing partners by helping U.S. drug agents set up a sting.
