ALGIERS, Algeria (AP) - Six suspects appeared before an investigating judge in connection with deadly twin truck bombings in December at a U.N. office and a government building in Algiers, the Interior Ministry said Wednesday.
The ministry also said the suspected ringleader behind the attacks, identified as Bouzegza Abderahmane, was killed during a Jan. 28 sweep by security forces in Souk el-Had, a section of the Boumerdes region east of the capital.
Security concerns have been high in Algeria since the Dec. 11 suicide bombings struck U.N. offices and the Constitutional Council building, killing at least 37 people — including 17 U.N. workers.
