Colombia says FARC wanted to make radioactive bomb
Published: 03.04.08, 13:52 / Israel News
Colombia’s FARC guerrilla movement was trying to get hold of radioactive material to make a “dirty bomb,” Colombian Vice-President Francisco Santos said on Tuesday.
Santos told the United Nations Conference on Disarmament that materials found on computers of Raul Reyes, the deputy commander of Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), showed the group was in negotiations to get hold of radioactive matter for a bomb. (Reuters)

Coalition Forces capture Special Groups facilitator; detain two suspects
BAGHDAD, Iraq – Coalition Forces captured a suspected Special Groups facilitator and detained one other suspected criminal early Monday in Mashru, south of Baghdad.
The targeted individual was reportedly a Special Groups logistical advisor for Wasit Province. As a logistical leader, he allegedly facilitated the movement of Special Groups criminals involved in sniper and explosively formed penetrator, EFP, attacks against Iraqi and Coalition Forces. He is also suspected of facilitating weapon shipments to include EFPs, rockets and mortars. Reports also indicate the wanted individual was an associate of Iranian-backed Special Groups criminal element leaders involved in attacks on Iraqi and Coalition Forces.
Intelligence led ground forces to the target area where they captured the wanted individual and the one other suspected criminal without incident.
“Coalition Forces will continue to apply pressure on criminal militias that are not honoring al Sayyed Muqtada al Sadr’s pledge to cease attacks,” said Lt. Michael Street, MNF-I spokesperson.
