Spain Arrests 2 with Alleged Ties to al Qaeda

Via CNN:

Spanish police arrested two suspected terrorists with apparent links to an al Qaeda-affiliated group Tuesday but said they had no indication of an imminent attack.

The Interior Ministry identified the suspects as Nou Mediouni, from Algeria, who was arrested in the north-central city of Zaragoza, and Hassan El Jaaouani, from Morocco, who was detained in the southeastern city of Murcia.

Spanish police worked with their counterparts in France and Morocco to carry out the latest arrests, the Interior Ministry statement said. . .


Spain doesn't say an attack was planned, but with Madrid Marathon on Sunday, I can see why they made the arrests now. - Greg Pollowitz
