Poland: Police avert explosions in Warsaw


The Polish law enforcers prevented an attempt to make an explosion and destroy police cars standing near a police station in Włochy, a district in the south-west of Warsaw.

“Three people at the age of 17 to 35 years were arrested over the case,” Michał Dziekański, the spokesman for the Warsaw District Prosecutor’s office, said.

According to him, illegal substances and explosive devices were found when searching the detainees. After the trio attempted to plant explosives in two police cars, they were detained without delay. The suspects were charged with illegal production and storage of explosives and endangering the lives of other persons (Art. 163, 164 and 171 of the Polish Criminal Code).

The men fail to admit their guilt. According to the police, they are involved in the anarchist movement.

As reported earlier, the Polish police detained a man suspected of laying explosives on a bus in Wroclaw (southwest Poland) on May 19. The explosive package went off on a bus stop in Wroclaw and one person suffered slight injuries. Seconds earlier the package was removed from a city bus by its driver and placed on the bus stop.

In mid March the U. S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) warned Poland’s Agency for Internal Security (ABW) that a number of capitals in Eastern and Central Europe, including Warsaw, Berlin, Budapest, Bucharest and Sofia, could potentially be attacked by terrorists all at once.
