LONDON - The British government says a senior intelligence official in the cabinet office has been suspended after secret government documents were left on a commuter train.

The documents on al-Qaida and Iraq were found by a passenger on a London commuter train Tuesday. The passenger gave the documents to the British Broadcasting Corp. The government's decision to suspend the employee comes as police launch a major investigation into the security breach. An internal inquiry is also under way.

One of the documents was a seven-page report on al-Qaida's weaknesses.

The second document was top secret and contained an assessment of Iraq's security forces.
