| Belgian authorities arrested an Algerian following a series of raids on a suspected false passport ring believed linked to the assassination of Afghan opposition leader Ahmed Shah Massood. The arrest came after authorities released 12 people who had been detained in house raids Monday. The raids are believed part of an investigation into whether two suicide bombers who fatally wounded Massood on Sept. 9 in his northern Afghan headquarters had been operating out of Belgium. Massood's killers posed as journalists and were carrying Belgian passports. The 30-year-old Algerian asylum-seeker was charged with forgery and gangsterism. |
