Two suspected boom boyz arrested in Afghanistan
Afghan security forces arrested two suspected suicide bombers wearing vests packed with explosives on Wednesday, hours after a grenade was thrown at an Indian consulate, police said. Police in the southern city of Kandahar said that they had received intelligence about suicide attacks and had set up a checkpoint on a road about 25 kilometres south of the city. We stopped two men riding a motorbike, pointed guns at them and ordered them not to move, said Masood Khan, a provincial police commander. They were wearing waist-coats full of explosives. Security forces had not established their identities, he said.
My guess is Pashtuns, probably Paks, from the nearest Waziristan. |
