Anthrax Attack In US In 91: US Scientist Is Alone Responsible
 
Press report has confirmed that an US scientist who killed himself last week was the sole person responsible for the deadly anthrax attacks in 2001 in the US, new FBI papers say.Dr Bruce Ivins alone controlled flask RMR1029, used in the attack, could not account for unusual overtime in labs and issued death threats, the FBI says. The anthrax-laced letters killed five people, made another 17 sick, and unsettled a nation traumatized by 9/11. Dr Ivins, 62, died shortly after being told he was about to be charged. The FBI had been under pressure since his death to reveal the details of the investigation and its papers were unsealed by a judge on Wednesday. FBI director Robert Mueller briefed the victims and their families about the case before publication. In a news conference later, the US attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeffrey Taylor, said: "We consider Dr Ivins was the sole person responsible for this attack."  He was a frequent writer to the media and often drove to other locations to disguise his identity as the sender of documents Print defects in envelopes used in the attacks suggest they may have been bought at a post office in 2001 in Frederick, Maryland, where he had an account Dr Ivins also sent an email a few days before the anthrax attacks, warning Osama "Bin Laden terrorists" had access to anthrax, the FBI says.
The email used language similar to that in the anthrax letters, it was alleged.
Dr Ivins was also immunised against anthrax in early September 2001.

We remember how at that time in 2001, Muslims were being suspected by some quarters. Now after about seven years things have been revealed. We feel the media should learn not to accuse anybody for terror activity before conclusive evidence come in investigation. No religious or ethnic community should be subjected to propaganda because no religion or race can be responsible for crimes.
