Kuwait holds five alleged militants
Kuwait says it has arrested five suspected Islamic militants and seized a large quantity of weapons and ammunition that the men were allegedly training with. The five men — four Kuwaitis and one other, all in their mid-30s — told security police they had been learning to operate the weapons in desert areas. They said they had buried other weapons such as hand grenades, cannons and shells, a Kuwaiti Interior Ministry statement said. Many of the items found were left behind by Iraqi forces after they were ousted from Kuwait by US-led troops during the Gulf War in 1991. They just keep coming. I'm glad the Kuwaitis are on this so closely... Posted by: Fred Pruitt 2003-03-06 |
