The Plot Thickens

Oooh, it looks like big developments are underway in the British investigations. First, there may be a link to Saudi Arabia.

LONDON - Police questioned suspects Sunday in the botched London transit attacks and reportedly investigated ties by the attackers to Saudi Arabia, scrambling to track down accomplices as they warned residents in the capital not to let down their guard against terrorism.

Meanwhile, British police said Sunday that they had made six new arrests under anti-terrorism laws in connection with the attempted bombings of three subway trains and a bus in London on July 21.

Also, it appears that one of the attackers, the guy they arrested in Rome on Friday, has admitted to carrying a bomb onto the Tube.

(That's the first time I've cited a New York Times article, and I don't plan to make a habit of it.)
