Bosnia arrests suspect linked to terrorism plot
SARAJEVO, Nov 25 (Reuters) - Police have arrested a Bosnian believed to be linked to four men held on terrorism charges over the last month, the Interior Ministry of Bosnia's Muslim-Croat federation said on Friday.
Federation police found a large quantity of explosives which it believed belonged to the suspects. The person was charged with "unlawful trade in military equipment and weapons", the ministry said in a press release.
"The investigation related to this case is under way and the detained person ... has been handed over to the office of the prosecutor for further handling," it said.
The arrest took place on Thursday.
Police arrested two Bosnians last week on terrorism charges, as well as a Bosnia-based Swede and a Turk on Oct. 20. Local media speculated they could have been planning to attack foreign embassies.
Danish police have also arrested seven individuals said to be linked to the suspects arrested in Bosnia so far. E
