By the time the Bojinka plot was discovered , Mohammed had returned to Qatar and his job as a project engineer at the country 's Ministry of Electricity and Water . He traveled in 1995 to Sudan , Yemen , Malaysia , and Brazil to visit elements of the worldwide jihadist community , although no evidence connects him to specific terrorist actions in any of those locations . On his trip to Sudan , he attempted to meet with Osama Bin Laden , who was at the time living there , aided by Sudanese political leader Hassan al-Turabi . After the US asked the Qatari government to arrest Mohammed in January 1996 , he fled to Afghanistan , where he renewed his alliance with Abdul Rasul Sayyaf . Later that year , he formed a working relationship with Bin Laden , who had settled there
