The orders calls for all bureau field offices and attaches to comb their files for any more documents that have not been turned over to Timothy McVeigh's lawyers, the newspaper said in a story from Washington, citing an unnamed source.

McVeigh, 33, was set to die by lethal injection on May 16th, but the execution was postponed last week by US Attorney General Mr John Ashcroft after the FBI disclosed it had inadvertently withheld more than 3,000 documents from McVeigh's defense attorneys before his 1997 trial.

Seven more documents were found in the Baltimore office late last week and were to be delivered to defense attorneys on yesterday, the sources told the Times. Neither the total number of pages, nor their specific content could be determined, the newspaper said.
