Anti-terror raid ends 14-hour siege in Dutch capital

AN anti-terror raid in the Dutch capital ended yesterday evening without any loss of life after a violent 14-hour siege.

The house, in a built-up area of The Hague, was booby-trapped and suspects with close links to terrorist cells targeting key political and industrial targets were captured.

Three police officers were wounded in a grenade blast earlier during the raid. One of two still in hospital is said to be in a serious condition. One of those taken into custody was injured in the shoulder.
