Six people were arrested Wednesday for allegedly selling explosives used in the 11 March terrorist attacks in Madrid, police said. Among those arrested was Antonio Castro Toro, brother-in-law of José Emilio Suárez Trashorras, the former miner who has been charged in connection with the investigation. Toro has been arrested before but was later released. Trashorras, a Spaniard, is accused of selling explosives used in the bomb attacks which killed 192 people and left 1,500 injured. He sold the Goma 2 explosives for cash and drugs to the Islamic fanatics who carried out the terrorist atrocity. | Nothing personel, just business |
Another of those who were arrested Wednesday was Toro's sister, Carmen Castro, the girlfriend of Trashorras. Sources named another suspect as Emilio Llano, a mine foreman who is said to have stolen the explosives. Three others were also named as Rubén Iglesias, Javier González DÃÂaz, alias 'The Dynamite', and 22-year-old Iván Granados Peña. The Guardia Civil carried out the arrests in Aviles in Asturias in northern Spain. The Goma 2 explosives used in the rush-hour bombings were said to have been stolen from a mine in this part of Spain. Authorities said that the operation was still underway and more arrests were expected later. | My compliments to the Spanish police. Now convict them, please. |
