World's police co-ordinate terror fight
(China Daily)
Updated: 2005-07-11 05:36

Gradually a picture is starting to build up. There was no lone suicide bomber. There was no single terrorist acting alone. The probability is that the worst terrorist attack in Britain was carried out by at least a four-person cell using synchronized explosive devices attached to timers.

And Britain might not have been the only target. There is evidence that atrocities were also being planned in Italy and possibly in Denmark.

Such knowledge will not cheer the 100 senior police officers, drawn from forces across the world, who descended on the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police in London at the weekend in a bid to share intelligence on the attacks.

But it will help the intelligence agencies start to obtain a clearer idea of what they are up against and who they are looking for.

The unprecedented meeting of the world's senior police officers will be chaired by the Metropolitan Police's Assistant Commissioner, Andy Hayman, the man who is heading the investigation into the London bombings.
