Ignalinsk Nuclear Power Station Linked with Al-Qaeda
2006-02-16
Viktoria Zakurko, a Lithuanian citizen, was arrested in the UK last weekend suspected of links with al-Qaeda. British and Lithuanian law enforcement agencies are particularly apprehended since the detaineeÂ’s father works in the security of the Ignalinsk nuclear power station.

The Lithuanian, who now resides in Liverpool, has been arrested on the grounds of her relations with Lebanese citizen Mohammed Benhammedi who is believed to be a financier of al-Qaeda.
Just wait til you get home, young lady.
The 19-year-old met the Lebanese businessman through mutual friends and left for Liverpool where she “met him every second night”, she says.
Got into a 'relationship' with an exotic foreigner, and now it's come home to bite her.
Benhammedi was detained last Wednesday and charged with violations of migration regulations. His accounts were frozen as suspected to be financing al-Qaeda. Viktoria Zakurko told the British press that she does not believe the accusations and ready to wait for her lover all her life.
"Or until my friends call me to go clubbing."
The British police got apprehended as they learnt that the girlÂ’s father, Sergey Zakurko, works in Lithuania as a security man at the Ignalinsk nuclear power station.
Wake up, Viktoria.

#3  Ah, a bit slow this morning, I misread the article as the reactor being in Britian on the first go-round.

More Coffee. (Slurp)

#2  Built with the same plans as Chernoble?

Google says the Chernoble design was never built outside the Soviet Union?

What gives here?

#1  Just from the names, I would think that Vikki baby might be ethnically Russian or Ukrainian. Anyway, I would be begging the Brits to keep me as long as possible. Once daddy gets his hands on her, she may not have long to live.

BTW....Ignalinsk (or at us Litvaks refer to it more often, Ignalina) was built with the same plans used for Chernobyl. Maybe ol' Mo was planning on taking one of the public tours and causing some trouble then. There's been a movement to shut it down for some time, but Lithuania's been reluctant to do so.
