Suspected cell leader plotted suicide attack in Spain
The suspected leader of a Muslim cell plotted to devastate Spain with a suicide bombing that would kill senior judges and destroy case files at a court that serves as a center for investigating Islamic terror, officials said Wednesday. Police also said they had intercepted hundreds of letters from suspected cell members in which they said they were willing to stage suicide attacks. A report from the National Police intelligence unit, obtained by The Associated Press, quotes a protected witness who had been in contact with United Arab Emirates-born Mohamed Achraf, who Spain says was recently arrested in Switzerland. Authorities in Switzerland deny this.Posted by: Mark Espinola 2004-10-20 |
