Saudi police storm empty terrorist hideout
2005-09-26
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (UPI) -- Saudi security forces stormed a hideout north of Riyadh believed to have been used by wanted Saudi terrorists.
A security source was quoted Monday as saying by daily Okaz that police stormed the hideout in the province of Moujamaa`, 93 miles north of Riyadh, on the weekend after receiving tips about the hideout.
Looks like they weren't the only ones being tipped
The source said the suspects using the hideout are believed to be Abdel Rahman Meteeb, Mohammed Suweilami, Abdullah Tuweijeri and Ibrahim Matir. They are all included in an official list of 36 most wanted terrorists made public by the Saudi authorities last June. No suspected terrorists were found in the raid but police reported taking a large amount of hand grenades and automatic rifle magazines.

#2  My question is how many casulties amoung the Saudi security forces? They can't do a 'storming' without someone getting hurt.

#1  It's fare easier to create an air tight cordon around a terrorist hideout when ther's no one left in it.
