Amman - A group of 13 "terrorism" suspects arrested in Jordan are part of a sophisticated group linked to Mr Osama bin Laden that was planning year-end attacks on tourist and other sites across the kingdom, a senior Jordanian source said yesterday.
"They are graduates of the academy of terrorism in Afghanistan linked to bin Laden," the source said. "They are a serious, sophisticated group that is well connected."
Jordan said on Wednesday it had arrested 11 Jordanian nationals, an Iraqi and an Algerian.
