Moscow blast remote controlled: Russian media

The suicide bomber, who attacked Moscow’s international airport killing 35 people, could have been blown through a remote control by one of his accomplices who might have thought that he would back out at the last minute, a media report in Russia said Saturday.

Quoting unnamed experts involved in the probe, Kommersant business daily reported that molten circuit boards found after the January 24 blast at the Domodedovo airport indicated that a cell phone was embedded in the plastic explosives used in the attack.

It said that the behaviour of the terrorist, who hesitated for sometime, also backed this theory.

CCTV footage showed that suicide bomber nervously walked around in the arrival zone of the airport for about 15 minutes before the blast.

A terrorist plot in Moscow was foiled New Year’s Eve when an unexpected text message reportedly detonated a suicide bomber’s explosives prematurely, Russian security told The Daily Telegraph.

The “Black Widow” bomber, who may belong to the group that attacked Moscow’s Domodedovo airport on Monday, planned to set off her suicide belt near Red Square, potentially killing hundreds of people, the newspaper reported.

Instead, security sources believe that a text message wishing the woman a happy new year from her mobile phone provider set off the explosives hours before the planned attack, The Daily Telegraph said.

News agencies said the bomber, who has yet to be identified, was killed and the building destroyed by the blast, but that another man and woman possibly connected to the plot managed to escape.

Funny how this was the big story and then disappeared from all the news as soon as the situation in Egypt changed. I fault myself - I feel like I completely forgot about this.
