NDS Seizes Haqqani Stash Of Explosive Material Disguised As Baby Powder
2015-05-18
[ToloNews] The National Directorate of Security
...the Afghan national intel agency...
(NDS) seized hundreds of bottles of Potassium Chlorate disguised as baby powder in a raid in Kabul on Sunday.

According to the NDS the substance, used to make explosives, was packed in baby powder bottles -- 384 in total. The bottles were in cardboard cartons and were seized at a warehouse belonging to an import company in District 8 -- Shah Shaheed - in Kabul.

The NDS said in a statement that the bottles had been imported by the Haqqani murderous Moslem network from outside the country.

"The potassium chlorate was transferred from outside [the country] for the launching of the suicide kabooms and blasts," read the statement.

Two years ago Pentagon research showed that faceless myrmidons in Afghanistan had started using potassium chlorate to make homemade bombs. This is the same substance used to make matches catch fire.

According to their study, they found that over 60 percent of IEDs were being made from this substance -- a material that is however considered extremely unstable.
