The men are believed to be associated with the Pakistani Taliban movement and to have helped provide an estimated $15,000 to accused Times Square bomber Faisal Shahzad, a Pakistani-American, to plan and execute the attack, one of the officials said.

"This is an investigation that is still ongoing. We don't have perfect knowledge yet about how this was done," one of the U.S. officials said.
