Kosovo Albanian with suicide vest arrested

February 16, 2009 – 7:15 pm A Kosovo Albanian from the city of Kacanik has been arrested in a cafe in the southern village of Strpce in Serbia’s province of Kosovo report police spokesman Arber Beka.

The arrested Albanian wore a suicide vest loaded with explosives.

He was arrested in the cafe called Kvatro around 8:00 pm today. Police and NATO troops have surrounded the perimeter and are investigating.

The arrest came after a cafe patron spotted that one of the three Albanians who just walked into the cafe had wires under his jacket.

The police was immediately called in and after a search, the police found explosive in a suicide vest on the body of Arben Husi, one of the 3 ethnic Albanians who came into the cafe.

In addition to the explosives, the police found a grenade and a Kalashnikov.

The witnesses say that one of the Albanians ran out of the cafe, while the second one was held on. After the search, the police tied Husi up to the chair and then took him to the police station.

It is not clear whether Husi planned to commit a suicide bombing or to just plant the explosive inside the cafe and activate it after.

Kosovo Albanians are overwhelmingly Muslim and radical Islam is on the increase ever since the Western states have been insisting that the Serbian province is independent.

Strpce is located just under the slopes of the Sar mountains and is populated by Serbs.

Few weeks ago, 2 Albanians stabbed a Serb from Strpce in a chest.

  • Well we do know for sure that some of the Fort Dix plotters came from there. We also know that the Saudis are opening up Wahhabi Mosques there. Kosovo is not some magical country that is going to transform the Islamic world. It is clear the problem is getting worse and worse. It is time for all non-Muslim countries to end Muslim immigration and Mosque construction.

    You're referring to a propaganda site there run by a Serb out of Wisconsin. How accurate do you think it is? I live in Kosovo and have never heard about any such news.

    And a Kalashnikof they should have searched further and found an RPG.

    One thing the Russians did better than the Americans: Russia refused to recognise Kosovo as a country. Clearly, they know a bit more about history.
