London, May 11(ANI): Ilyas Kashmiri, who has been linked to multiple terror plots such as a series of '26/11 Mumbai style' attacks in Europe, could take over from Osama Bin Laden as Al-Qaeda chief, a US official has said.

According to the official, Kashmiri has emerged as a dark horse as bin Laden's long-time presumed successor Ayman al-Zawahri is very unpopular in some circles.


Kashmiri has been targeted by the CIA in drone attacks in Pakistan and US prosecutors have indicted him in a major terrorism case going on trial next week involving a Chicago businessman.

"His star has been on the rise for the last several years. He would have to be on the Al-Qaeda shortlist," the official told NBC.
