A SUSPECTED suicide bomber blew himself up prematurely near a main road routinely used by government officials and foreign troops in eastern Afghanistan, police said today.
The man was blown to bits and only his leg and hat were found at the scene after the blast in eastern Nangarhar province yesterday, provincial police spokesman Ghafor Khan said.
"Our investigations show that a suicide bomber wanted to get to the main road and, just before that, explosives strapped to his body went off due to some malfunction ahead of time and tore him into pieces," Mr Khan said.
In a separate attack on the same day in the province, a civilian was killed and five were wounded in a bomb blast.
It was not clear who was behind the bombing.
Police, however, blamed both incidents on "enemies of Afghanistan who want to create tension to undermine security".

Next time, I hope similar bombers do this in the terrorist bomb making factory among many fellow terrorists holding boxes of rusty nails.

And he is still considered a suspected suicide bomber? OH, maybe he was just walking around with a bomb for fun and it went off by accident. :)

Ya think there's any warrantee involved here? Maybe a refund or something? Half price on his next vest?
