'Al-Qaeda' recruiters arrested Morocco nabs 11 over attacks Morocco fails at human rights Morocco fights terrorist network

Rabat - Moroccan police said on Friday they had dismantled "a dangerous terrorist network" linked to al-Qaeda and arrested 15 suspects who were planning attacks in the kingdom.

The group, called Fath al-Andalous, were in possession of chemicals and electronics "used in the making of explosives", the Moroccan news agency MAP quoted police as saying.

"Members of this structure ... were planning attacks in Morocco and had established operational links with foreign extremists of the al-Qaeda organisation," MAP quoted police as saying.

MAP quoted police as saying the network was present in several Moroccan cities.

Those arrested would be taken before a court "to answer for their acts," police said.
