Denmark - Letter Bomb Man Blows Himself up

Bomb suspect 'targeted' Danish paper Jyllands-Posten

The suspect received facial injuries
Danish police think a man hurt in a blast was making a letter bomb to use against a newspaper which published cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad.


The man was arrested in a park in Copenhagen on 10 September after a small explosion at a nearby hotel.

Police spokesman Svend Foldager said the device would have had the explosive force of a hand grenade.

He was "reasonably confident" Jyllands-Posten had been targeted by the suspect, who denies any crime.

The suspected would-be letter bomber pleaded not guilty to firearms charges and putting lives at risk when he appeared in court on 11 September.

He has been named by police as Lors Dukayev, born in 1986 in Chechnya and now living in Belgium.

The relatively low-tech device - which contained TATP high explosive and ball bearings - was ready for use, the police spokesman said.

Jyllands-Posten, a best-selling newspaper, published 12 caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad in 2005 to accompany an editorial criticising self-censorship in the Danish media.

Their publication, which both broke an Islamic tenet banning the portrayal of his image and mocked him, sparked riots in many Muslim countries, causing several deaths.

One more moderate muslim at work for the peace and tolerance.

So sad he doesn't had his head blowed off.

I love it when a plan comes together. Fuck these losers.

[Mr Lick]

Maybe he was attempting a fairly new technique relating to cosmetic surgery.

One has to say that unfortunately, the experiment appears to have been a complete failure. Just take a look at that hooter

[oldgit]

Blew his beard off, pity it wasn't his head

[the dogcatcher]

Something to write home about?

[Mr Lick]

A letter bomb? Maybe he made the mistake of mailing to himself? It's quite possible, after all he was probably agitated and confused

[stewart888]

bunch of cowards and losers. nothing to do to make the world a better place
just hurt differant folks at random. No respect for the f heads.

May as well have pleaded guilty to this one. Looks to me as though he put his own life at risk.

Lock him away for life for his own safety.

A valiant effort in trying to gain entrance for a Darwin award, sadly he failed.

[Thormaturge]

DD you must be psychic.

The final line of my post originally read "Lock him away for life and prove Darwin right" but I changed it before submitting the post.

Give him a few crates of kitchen stuff and send him to Helmand.

[teddy]

I went to Copenhagen once.

I have sympathies for the bomber.

Death is less painful than 2 days in that shitehole.

TATP is an organic peroxide, they are the kind of compounds that, when dryish, go off if you breath on them or just give them the evil eye. Making a letter bomb out of something this sensitive defiantly would have got him a darwin award if he had managed to castrate or kill him self.

As he is a member of the religion of peace, he must innocent. As the photo shows; he suffers from serious acne. Its well known that many acne treatments contain organic peroxides and he was simply experimenting with their use to get rid of his spots. He was sending the letter to share his new discovery with his best friend and he had no idea the stuff was so dangerous. Its just another example of blatant islamophobia.

[Mr Lick]

^ Plausible, i wouldn't be surprised if he tries that one!
