More than 40 suspects were arrested in Jordan in connection
with the December terrorist attack on a CIA meeting in Afghanistan,
AFP reported Sunday night.
"More than 40 Jordanian jihadists, including ex-convicts,
have been arrested," an official told AFP.
The attacker, Humam Khalil Abu-Mulal al- Balawi, killed eight
people inside a
CIA base in December
after claiming to have information about Osama bin Laden's
second-in-command.
