Mosque Bombed in Zanzibar; One Dead by VOA News Police in the Tanzanian capital of Zanzibar are hunting for suspects after the bombing of a mosque that killed one person and injured several more. Security officials said a homemade bomb went off at a mosque on Friday in Zanzibar's Stone Town area. The French news agency identified the victim as a Muslim preacher, Sheikh Mohammed Abdalla Mkombalaguha. No one has claimed responsibility for the blast. Police say they are questioning suspects but have made no arrests. This is the latest in a series of suspected sectarian attacks in Tanzania's capital, known as a tourist spot for its white sand beaches and busy bars and restaurants. In February, two bombs exploded near an Anglican cathedral and a nearby restaurant, causing no injuries. Last year attackers threw acid in the faces of two British teenagers as they strolled through Stone Town. __________________________________________________________________ [1]http://www.voanews.com/content/mosque-bombed-in-zanzibar-one-dead/19 37057.html References 1. http://www.voanews.com/content/mosque-bombed-in-zanzibar-one-dead/1937057.html
