That same day, Mr. Khan said, he had just finished his prayers **at the local mosque in Santiago when several people approached him and asked if he spoke English. He said yes, and they said they were Americans visiting the mosque. “They talked about religion,” **Mr. Khan said.
Three days later Mr. Khan went to the embassy, as requested. He handed in his passport and cellphone. William Whitaker, an embassy official, escorted him to a special room on the embassy grounds, where he asked if he could photocopy Mr. Khan’s documents. He left with them, saying he would return in 15 minutes.
**A half hour passed and Mr. Khan checked the door and realized that it was locked. **An hour later, he said, he was told over an intercom to take off his shoes, strip down to his underwear and show each clothing item to a security camera.
He was eventually permitted to dress, and Chilean police officers entered the room with a dog. They quickly tested his hands.
The tests of his hands and clothing were negative, a prosecutor said later in court. But the documents and Mr. Khan’s cellphone tested positive for tetryl, and the officers arrested him.

The Chilean police sent two teams to examine Mr. Khan’s room at the boarding house with bomb-testing equipment. The first team found no sign of explosives. The second found traces of tetryl on seven items of clothing, including a necktie and a small suitcase. A laptop also tested positive, an official in the prosecutor’s office said.
Few weird/abnormalities. The embassy found traces on documents and cell phones which were taken off-sight from Saif but Chilean authorities didn’t find anything on his clothings or body, that is clear sign of embassy officials trying to trap him. Secondly, two teams went to check his room and 1st team didn’t find anything but 2nd team does, whoa!
