| Chemicals discovered in Kabul house |
| 2002-08-26 |
| Police discovered small quantities of 16 different chemicals in sealed containers in a house leased to the Saudi Arabian charity al Wafa until the overthrow of the Taleban regime last year. The chemicals have not yet been identified. Afghanistan's national directorate of security is investigating. Documents were seized along with the chemicals, and Radio Kabul reported that the chemicals and documents were found with a quantity of explosives. Al Wafa is one of the organisations whose assets have been frozen in the United States amid suspicions that it might be giving support to Osama Bin Laden's al-Qaeda network. More Soddy NGO involvement. This sort of thing is turning into a dog-bites-man story... |
