Lav-teknologisk Terrorisme

Så skete det igen. En wanna-be hellig kriger sprængte sig selv og to af hans kammerater i stumper og stykker, da hans bombe eksploderede, mens de var på vej til deres mål på cykel.

CHEECHA WATNI, Pakistan (AP) -- Three Islamic militants died in eastern Pakistan when a powerful bomb they were transporting by bicycle accidentally exploded Saturday near a bustling cattle market, police said.

Mohammed Shakil, a police inspector at the scene, told The Associated Press one of the men riding a bicycle had strapped explosives to his body that exploded prematurely, killing himself and the two others in Cheecha Watni, a town about 100 kilometers (60 miles) east of Multan, a city in Punjab province.

Shakil said the slain men were students of a local seminary and had links with Sipah-e-Sahaba -- a Sunni militant group outlawed by the government in 2001 in an effort to purge Pakistan of extremism.

The severed head of one of the militants was found in a nearby field, Shakil said. Police collected the suspects' remains for DNA testing.

Og jeg som synes, det er irriterende når min cykel punkterer mens jeg er på vej til arbejde. Men selv at ryge i luften må virkelig ødelægge hele dagen.
