Would-be Afghan suicide bomber kills himself and family

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (AFP) - A would-be suicide bomber killed himself and five members of his family as his mother tried to stop him from carrying out a Taliban-inspired attack in Afghanistan, police said Monday.

The 22-year-old man's bomb-filled vest blew up as his mother made desperate attempts to stop him carrying out his deadly mission in the southern province of Uruzgan on Sunday.

"His mother grabbed his vest and said, 'Take this off, we don't want you to do this,'" Uruzgan police chief Juma Gul Himat told AFP, citing the bomber's father who was wounded in the blast.

"This was when the explosives went off. Two of his brothers, two of his sisters, his mother and the Abdul Samad (the bomber) -- they all died."

Another child and Samad's father were wounded in the explosion and were being treated in hospital in the Uruzgan capital, Tirin Kot, the police chief said.

The interior ministry said in a statement earlier that the explosion killed the bomber, his mother, a sister and an 11-year-old brother in their home.

The ministry said the militant had been trained in a Pakistani Islamic school and was tasked to carry out a suicide attack on security forces in Afghanistan.

The police chief said the young man had arrived from Pakistan and given his family 250,000 afghani (5,000 dollars), telling them, "This is money for my funeral after my martyrdom."

"He said, 'I am going to carry out jihad against the foreigners and go to paradise,'" Himat said.

His horrified mother tried to take the suicide vest off him, saying "We don't need your money, we don't want you to go to Paradise this way," Himat said.

Afghanistan has suffered more than 120 suicide attacks this year, most of them claimed by extremist Taliban insurgents, killing scores of people, mostly civilians.

Nearly 50 people have died in three such attacks in Kabul in the past month, all claimed by the Taliban, which was in government between 1996 and 2001.

The latest was on October 6 when an attacker rammed his bomb-laden car into a US-led military convoy, killing a US soldier and five Afghan bystanders in Kabul.

The United Nations Mission in Afghanistan said in a report in September that many of the men carrying out suicide attacks here have passed through religious schools in Pakistan.

Many believe an act of jihad, or war in the name of religion, will earn them a place in Paradise.

The police chief said three other men who had come to Uruzgan from Pakistan allegedly to wage jihad had been arrested.
