Sami bin Khamis bin Salih Essid (Arabic: سامي بن خميس بن صالح الصيد)
a.k.a. Essid Sami Ben Khemais was the head of al-Qaeda's Italian cell until his arrest outside Milan in April 2001. He received a five-year sentence for trafficking in arms, explosives, and chemicals.[1] Essid remains under embargo by the United Nations Security Council Committee 1267[2] as an affiliate of al-Qaeda, and by the US Treasury[3] for his terrorist activity. Around 1 July 2007, fresh charges against Sami Essid were read in Italy, where he was still in custody.[4]
According to the UN he was born on 10 February 1968 in Menzel Jemil, Bizerte Governorate, Tunisia.
He phoned a cell phone held by Saber Mohammed - believed to have been acting as a messenger for Mosa Zi Zemmori and Driss Elatellah.[5]
