"(CNN) -- A longtime associate of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden surrendered to Saudi Arabian officials Tuesday, a Saudi Interior Ministry official said."  "But it is unclear what role, if any, Khaled al-Harbi may have had in any terror attacks because no public charges have been filed against him."  "The Saudi government -- in a statement released by its embassy in Washington -- called al-Harbi's surrender "the latest direct result" of its limited, one-month offer of leniency to terror suspects."
