Lagos car dealers arrested over Abuja bombings

Security agents have arrested more suspects over the October 1 Abuja explosions in which 12 persons were killed and scores injured.

Car dealers at Amuwo Odofin, Lagos, from whom the two vehicles used for the blasts were allegedly bought and the welder who built the compartments in the car for housing the bombs are the new suspects.

State Security Services (SSS) spokeswoman Marilyn Ogar, who broke the news at a press briefing in Abuja, also denied that suspects were being tried secretly.

Mrs Ogar said the Service allowed the suspects in its custody access to their lawyers and family members, following the orders of a court.

She also said that the mortals, rocket launchers and grenades intercepted in Lagos recently were meant for Nigeria and not Gaza Strip, as suggested by Israeli Intelligence.
