Police sources say two of the suspects are Algerians and one is French, while the nationality of the fourth is not immediately known. The four have been arrested in the south-eastern Mediterranean town of Menton. They are suspected of providing shelter to a man who belonged to an Al Qaeda cell believed to have been under the control of Osama bin Laden’s son and who was preparing to return to Afghanistan.
