Egypt Identifies Sharm Bombers Summer Said, Arab News CAIRO, 5 September 2005 Egyptian police have identified three suicide bombers who had carried out Sharm El-Sheikh attacks. The bombers Mahmoud Mohamed Hammad, Mohamed Oudeh Saeed and Moussa Ghoneim were identified through DNA tests. The three had travelled from the northern Sinai town of Al-Arish to carry out the attacks, police sources said. "Two of the bombers, who rammed vehicles into a hotel and a market, used gas cylinders packed with explosives. The third bomber carried a bag with explosives," they said. Police said the group that carried out Sharm attacks was also behind the October bombings on Taba and nearby resorts, as well as an attack in August on a vehicle used by a multinational observer force. The attack injured two Canadian women peacekeepers. "The group is led by an Egyptian of a Bedouin origin who believes that Muslims have to follow his orders without questioning," said a security source. "He managed to form terrorist groups in Sinai that do not know or have contacts with each other to avoid being caught by police," the source told Arab News. Another source said that the group has no link with any international terrorist organization including Al-Qaeda. Algeria's FFS Calls for Referendum Boycott Agence France Presse ALGIERS Algeria's opposition Socialist Forces Front (FFS) called yesterday for a boycott of a planned Sept. 29 referendum on a draft national reconciliation charter, saying it would "consecrate impunity" for atrocities committed in the north African country's civil war. The FFS "cannot endorse a text that glorifies force and deprecates political mediation, consecrates impunity and amnesty, and in the end negotiates away pain and suffering," the FFS said in a statement.
