Italy Arrests Three Algerian Terror Suspects

(Rome) The Italian news agency ANSA reports that the carabinieri paramilitary police have arrested three suspected Muslim terrorists for allegedly plotting a terrorist attack. The three, named Yamine Bouhrama, Khaled Serai and Mohamed Larbi, are linked to the Salafist Group for Call and Combat, a militant Algerian movement that is allied with Osama bin Laden. The suspects' role in the Salafist group is described as "potentially operational."

The 30-ish three suspects were arrested last night "in the southern port city of Naples and in Brescia in the north" and are being held on international terrorism charges.
