(Aarhus) A 25 year
old Somali citizen today received a 6 month prison sentence for building a bomb
in his basement.
The man was arrested by armed police last October when a neighbour
on investigating after hearing a door being kicked in on a residential street
in the city of Aahus found a suspicious package he presumed could only be a
bomb. Police sealed off and cleared the area. However a certain young Somali refused to move from his apartment. So they
lobbed a tear gas grenade into his flat and when he came out he was arrested.
The suspicious object was investigated, and police could see
that it was a homemade bomb with detonators, containing 400 grams of explosives
and pieces of metal. As the Somali had been arrested the Police had his
fingerprints and DNA, which kind of helped them tie him with the bomb when his
DNA and fingerprints were found on the IED. Anyway he had his day in court, and
he was sent down for 6 months with a deportation order thrown in at the end of
it.
Naturally the Somali bomb maker has appealed.
