(AKI) - Iraqi security forces on Tuesday arrested what they said was a 60-year-old boom bitch female suicide bomber outside a bank in Baquba a city just north of Baghdad, a local news agency reported. The woman was apprehended as she was trying to detonate explosives strapped on a belt she was wearing, the NINA agency said. The woman's arrest comes just days after security forces took into custody several alleged al-Qaeda militants apparently specialising in the training of female suicide bombers.
