have also heard the same asala:
Package was opened by female personel within the building of Capita.
Dont know if they are the only company in that building?

Dont think terrorist, i think more of angry mortorist who has just had a few congestion charges land on his "doormat"

The woman is being treated in Hospital for her injuries.

ROFL

Glad to hear its just minor injurys to the woman

smells like ALF.

A simple search on the internet will show that the ALF carried out a string of letter bomb attacks in January and for the last 20 years. If Capita is involved in with groups who the ALF are against, you have a cause.

Plus, the Government is currently killing mass turkeys due to bird flu....possible link? who knows.

Ok seems to be more and more now round the county,

So either this is a copy cat atttacks, or this is a group,


A woman has been injured by a letter bomb which exploded at the main DVLA centre in South Wales, police say.
The attack, which happened shortly before 0930 GMT, is the third of its kind on motoring-related companies in three consecutive days.

Police said the latest blast happened in the post room of the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency in Swansea.

An accountancy firm in Berkshire was targeted on Tuesday, and the central London offices of Capita on Monday.




this is the 3rd event since i first posted this,
news.bbc.co.uk...

I think this may be related,

Police have carried out a controlled explosion on the A27

more on that when its reported

i was wondering whether these new attacks are just a smokescreen to cover the blair scandal in the news.

i made a post here about the speculation going round that the other recent alleged terrorists, (2 of which were released without charge today and totally unaware of what they were even being held for) are all part of this distraction.

then, low and behold, look who is speaking to the press and being quoted today about these letter bombs....... none other than
PETER POWER.

those who don't know who HE is obviously havent been here long enough.

so asala, do you think it's a diversion tactic by the government?

Well it sure does cross your mind,

As all the Blair stuff has been going on we have had

1, Beheading plot,
2, Bird flu
3, 7 letterbombs in 3 weeks,
4, Vet being monitored for bird flu

Does make you go hmmm a little...



But also could just be some disgruntled driver who's mad at the dvla or group trying to make a political point of some form or another,

There is said to have Been one sent to a 53 yr old mans home, would be interested to see who he turns out to be or works for,
