Mustafa Mahmoud Said Ahmed
- Mustafa Mahmoud Said Ahmed
Mustafa Mahmoud Said Ahmed is an Egyptian who gave the CIA advance warning of the 1998 United States embassy bombings. In late 1997 he entered the American embassy in Nairobi (one of the targets of the bombings), where he met with CIA officers, and said he knew about a group that was planning to detonate a truck bomb inside the diplomats’ underground parking garage. The CIA later stated that it received word from an unnamed foreign intelligence service that Ahmed was a fabricator of information and that his warning should be treated with skepticism. As a result, Ahmed's information was discounted in early 1998, shortly before the bombings. Ahmed was arrested in Tanzania after the bombings and was believed to be a key figure in the Dar-es-Salaam attack.
