| Adjust font size: |
Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh Tuesday warned that intelligence agencies believe Islamic militant groups are planning more attacks in India, and said the targets could include economic, religious and nuclear sites. Intelligence reports suggest that terrorist cells exist in some of India's major cities and pose a serious threat to the country's security, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said in a speech at a conference on internal security in New Delhi. The prime minister's warning follows similar concerns expressed by India's defence minister and the country's national security adviser after a series of train bombings in Mumbai left more than 207 people dead on July 11. Singh said the assailants may use "suicide bombers," and could launch "attacks on economic and religious targets," as well as "nuclear establishments, army camps and the like." 9 arrested in Denmark for terror plot Also Tuesday, Danish security police arrested nine men suspected of plotting to carry out a terrorist bomb attack in the Nordic country. Justice Minister Lene Espersen said most of the men are Danish citizens and that police had acted after discovering several of the group had collected materials to make explosives. She gave no details about the potential target of an attack. Reports in Danish media said the men were aged between 18 and 35. Earlier, police had said they were all aged under 30. They were arrested early Tuesday morning in Denmark's third largest city, Odense. (China Daily September 6, 2006)
