MAKKAH, 3 February 2007 — Police arrested a man with weapons hidden under his clothes as he tried to enter the Grand Mosque in Makkah. Maj. Gen. Mansour Al-Turki, spokesman of the Interior Ministry, said yesterday that security personnel stopped the man late on Thursday because he appeared to be acting strangely. He was carrying a revolver and a sub-machinegun under his clothes, and was wearing what appeared to be a suicide belt but which later proved to be fake. Police also seized hashish from him. The man’s nationality was not clear.
