Algiers security services tightening control
Saturday May 12 2007.

Security services tightened control over some points in Algiers and its suburbs. New check points have been set up, in which security services use materials allowing detection of chemical substances used in explosive manufacturing by terrorist groups.

In the Western suburb of Algiers, security services have set check points in the highway near Bouchaoui and Club des Pins where last December’s terrorist attack against Brown & Root Condor workers has been undertaken.

In the southern suburb of the capital, security services have tightened check points stretching to Blida Wilaya. The same situation has been noticed in the crossroads, as security control was at its strongest in the southern municipalities such as Baraki, which is said to shelter those who planned for 4/11 attacks that targeted Algiers.

Moreover, security services have taken the same measures in all the eastern municipalities near Boumerdès and Tizi Ouzou Wilayas using materials of explosive detection.
