Twelve illegal weapons, among them pistols and submachine guns, were
uncovered during a search of the Palestinian ambassador’s new residence
in Prague shortly after his death in an explosion on Wednesday, Police
President Martin Červíček told Czech Television. He said a ballistic
expertise was now underway. The police had previously refused to specify
the number of weapons found, leading to speculation that there may have
been up to 70 illegal weapons on the premises.
