LAHORE, MARCH 14. Pakistani police today said they had detained a man who claimed to have murdered the Wall Street Journal reporter, Daniel Pearl. Adnan Khan, alias Sami, was arrested after he went to the offices of a newspaper in Lahore and said he had killed pearl, a police official told Reuters. ``We have detained a man who claims he has killed Daniel pearl. We are investigating,'' he said. The staff at the Urdu-language daily Khabrain said Khan also claimed to belong to the Jaish-e- Mohammad, a banned militant Islamic group. The newspaper put out a special one-page edition to report Khan's arrest, showing a Photograph of the man surrendering to the police in front of the newspaper staff. It quoted Khan as saying that he killed pearl with an axe on board a boat in the Arabian sea, in the presence of several other ``masked people''. - Reuters
