More than 50 people have been held by Australian police after police swooped on what police believe to be a CIA-backed plan to kill US President Barack Obama in the early hours of the morning on a bus.
Inspector-General of State for Australia, Michael McCormack, said in a state카지노 사이트ment investigators had found no evidence to support the claims against Australia’s former intelligence chief, Bob Carr, of conspiring to kill Mr Obama.
“As a consequence, the Government바카라사이트 has suspended the detention of these people pending the conclusion of the review and the assessment to see what steps will be taken in the event of a judicial inquiry.”
Mr Carr is on bail for a series of offences, including bribery and fraud.
But the New South Wales Police, which conducted the raids, said Mr Carr and four other suspects, including the ex-director of the intelligence agency the Central Intelligenc바카라e Agency, were arrested with an unknown person in what they described as an attempt to “cover up their activities”.
Mr McCormack said it was likely the arrests followed media reports on Thursday about one of the four suspects.
Australian Attorney-General John Howard praised the “highly significant” operation.
