Two men arrested in Afghanistan over attempt to bomb school
The arrests of two men apparently planning to place a bomb in a girlâs school in northern Afghanistan have led to authorities obtaining vital information on the killing of 11 Chinese workers earlier this month. Officials say the men were arrested on Saturday at Fatimatul Zahra school in Kunduz city, north of Kabul. Kunduz governor, Mahommed Omar says the pair were detained when the bomb they were allegedly attempting to plant exploded prematurely. Governor Omar says one of the men has provided information which will lead police to those behind the attack on the Chinese workers, killed after tents they were sleeping in were sprayed with gunfire. He says both men have also confessed that the men came to Kunduz city armed with 21 bombs. Posted by: TS(vice girl) 2004-06-20 |
