US intelligence has paid Pakistan millions of dollars for handing over Al-Qaeda suspects it captured, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf says in a new book.
In a collection of memoirs entitled "In the Line of Fire," Musharraf details how the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) paid undisclosed rewards totalling millions of dollars for the more than 350 prisoners Pakistan has handed over.



"We have captured 689 and handed over 369 to the United States. We have earned bounties totalling millions of dollars," Musharraf says in the book.

"Those who habitually accuse us of 'not doing enough' in the war on terror should simply ask the CIA how much prize money it has paid to the government of Pakistan," he says, without specifying where the money came from.

The US Justice Department runs a "Rewards For Justice" program promising millions of dollars in return for information leading to the arrest or conviction of a number of key suspects wanted for specific militant attacks.

The department says it has paid out more than 62 million dollars for information that prevented attacks or helped bring suspects to justice.
