The Minister for the Interior, Alfredo Pérez Rubalcaba has said that the six alleged Islamist activists who were arrested in Burgos yesterday were part of an organised group.

The butchers shop owned by the man thought to be the leader of the group, used to be owned by one of the men found guilty of the bombing against Spanish interests in Casablanca in May 2003.
