Philippine security foil bombings in Manila

MANILA, Philippines -- Security forces have foiled a plot by al-Qaida-linked militants to set off bombs in Manila and other major Philippine cities with the arrest of an alleged conspirator, the national police chief said Friday. Suspected militant Guiamaludin Edsrafil — wanted for multiple murder and attempted murder for his alleged role in bombings in the country’s troubled south — was arrested Tuesday in southern Cotabato city possessing some components for making bombs, police Director Gereral Jesus Verzosa said.

Verzosa said Edsrafil belonged to a terrorist cell of the Special Operations Group of the separatist Moro Islamic Liberation Front.
