In Tunisia, Extremists Bore Blueprints
Jan 12, 2007

TUNIS, Tunisia -- Nearly 30 Islamic extremists involved in a deadly gunbattle with police in this North African country had blueprints of foreign embassies and documents naming foreign envoys, the interior minister said Friday.

Haj Kacem described the 27 people involved in the Jan. 3 clash as "Salafist terrorists," referring to the hardline movement among Muslim fundamentalists, the official news agency TAP reported.
