Daniel Andreas San Diego faces a delivery after 21 years

A suspected dual launcher in the required list at the FBI, who has disappeared for 21 years in court this week, will decide if it will be sent to the United States to confront the trial.

The FBI believes that Daniel Andreas San Diego has links to the extremist animal rights groups and is the main suspect of a series of bombings in the San Francisco Bay area in 2003.

Former FBI agents said that there are “lost opportunities” to arrest the 47 -year -old before his disappearance and claimed that they found a “manufacturer of bombs” suspected in his abandoned car after the investigators called him a 65 -mile (104 km) in California.

Mr. San Diego was found 5,000 miles (8000 km) In a hut, North Wales last year.

Mr. San Diego, who had a reward of $ 250,000 (199,000 pounds) at his head, A five -day delivery session At the Westminster Judges in London on Monday to see if the UK will hand it over to the United States to respond to a federal arrest warrant.

The former American prosecutors, the first American born and passed in the wanted terrorist list in the FBI, have accused, on charges of harm and destruction harmful by the explosive after two separate attacks in 2003.

A revolutionary group in animal rights, the animal liberalization brigade claimed responsibility for the attacks on companies that they believe had had links with the organizations that tested the products on animals.

Former FBI’s Undersecretary David Smith was part of a special operations group that was seeing Mr. San Diego.

“It was great by being not noticeable,” said Mr. Smith, a senior monitoring expert in the office.

“He was relatively small and natural, and there was no indication that this man started to seem violent. We have never obtained any indication that he was aware of us.”

The FBI felt that he had enough intelligence for a suggestion that Mr. San Diego was the main suspect and I think he was the one who planted the devices that exploded for a month.

But the supervisory agent Andrew Black, part of the anti -entering media team at the FBI, remembers: “The Office of the Public Prosecutor and Agents in the United States was making a decision about his arrest now or developing more information.

“Hope was leading us to other members of this animal rights group who used violence to enhance their agenda.”

Two biblical biomers exploded in Emirville, near Auckland, the United States of America, on August 28, 2003, with investigators believed that the second bomb was planted to target the first respondents.

Then a nail bomb exploded in a food products company in Blazanton, 30 miles (48 km) east of the first explosion, on September 26, 2003. No one was injured in any of the bombing.

The former FBI’s former surveillance specialists have been told that Mr. San Diego had been developed as a suspicion of Hazem and were asked to watch him with “imminent arrest”.

“We were looking at someone we thought he had carried out multiple bombings and a local terrorist,” Mr. Smith recalls.

Mr. Smith and his former colleagues, Clyid Foreman, a former former supervisory agent, remember their colleagues to conduct detention once he is identified as the main suspect.

“As far as it could be, the more longing for the surveillance retains, they will notice something unusual and at risk,” added Mr. Black, a 27 -year -old agent.

“There was frustration that did not give the green light to arrest him because they said that there was potential if he left, he would be able to detonate additional bombs.”

On the day that Mr. San Diego came out of the FBI radar, Mr. Smith was hiding in camouflage outside his house.

Hours after Mr. Smith and the Federal Investigation Office stopped monitoring, Mr. San Diego said he fled to the investigators in the endeavor.

Mr. Smith recalls: “Since almost left his home, he was acting feverish.”

“His leadership patterns have changed. Where he was going, he was driving wrongly, which is a typical thing for someone trying to evade observation.”

Agents said that he traveled south of his home in Sebastopol, Sonoma Province, the past two passengers, through tunnels and bridges in a hunt on the highway for an hour that ended in the center of San Francisco.

Spy planes at the FBI could not put their goal, as the famous fog in San Francisco prevented their point of view as Mr. San Diego slipped on the network.

Mr. San Diego left his car as the engine continued to run, at an intersection in the crowded city center next to the subway station, and did not appear again.

“The team that followed was thinking that he stopped the car and went a few blocks in the street to a nearby site, either known to the Animal Rights Group or was related.”.

I asked, “Did anyone see him or do anyone see this place now? “They did not.

“The car was parked in a bus area next to the metro, and we said,” We think it was gone. “

Mr. Foreman felt the same.

He recalls, “We knew that he was blowing the wind and it would be really difficult to find it,” he recall.

“The case group was working on the assumption that San Diego was using a bombs to make bombs.

“When he gave up his car, we discovered that his bombs were in his car box.”

Watch Mr. Smith when he opened the shoe and confessed to the detective, “All you want at all.”

“If we knew that he was certain that he was arrested a few days ago,” he added.

“It was difficult to say that there.

“It was definitely a lost chance.”

The double shelling came two years after 11/11 attacks The United States was at maximum alert, so the head of the Foreman department was an opinion: “Once someone was identified, his arrest.”

Mr. San Diego was a specialist in the Berkeley computer network, California, and he grew up in an area of ​​the upper middle class in the San Francisco Bay area. His father was the city director.

The FBI worked to track Mr. San Diego for years after his disappearance, and to watch family and friends to see if they can lead the agents to him. But the smell was cold. They thought he might have fled to Central or South America.

Mr. San Diego was charged in the US Boycott in 2004 and considered the FBI as armed and dangerous.

After that, after 21 years of none and Mr. Smith and Mr. Foreman retired from the office, they heard one of the most bad fugitives in the UK after they were found in an isolated hut on the side of the North Wells Tel.

The National Crime Agency in the United Kingdom (NCA) and the Anti -Terrorism Police passed in November 2024, where Mr. San Diego, who used to use the Danny Webb nickname in Wadi Konoy, was arrested near Llanrwst.

“I think he got some support – you are not chasing Jason Born,” said Foreman.

“He was not a skilled intelligence officer. He had to get support.”

The FBI said it would not comment on the potentially lost opportunities to arrest Mr. San Diego.

But at the time of his arrest, the FBI director, Christopher Way, said: “Daniel San Diego is arrested after more than 20 years as a runaway of two bombings in the San Francisco area, regardless of the period it takes, the FBI will find you and finds responsibility.”

Mr. San Diego, who is being held in the London Balmarash Security Prison, refused to comment.
