Guest guest Posted July 9, 2005 Report Share Posted July 9, 2005 Tube bombs 'almost simultaneous' The three bombs on London underground trains " exploded almost simultaneously " , say police. Scotland Yard Deputy Assistant Commissioner Brian Paddick said the attacks took place within 50 seconds of each other. Technical data from London Underground disproved the earlier wider range of timings between explosions. The police also warned that the recovery of victims could continue through the night. There is still no certainty about the number of people whose bodies remain trapped in wrecked train carriages below King's Cross, say the police. This would be a " slow, methodical, meticulous process " in very difficult circumstances, said Deputy Chief Constable Andy Trotter. Missing There have been 49 confirmed fatalities in the bomb attacks on tube trains and a bus - and concerns remain for a further 25 missing people. So far no victims have been formally identified - and police warn that the process, due to begin on Saturday, could take weeks to complete. The police say that timings show that the explosions took place at 8.50am - and that the synchronisation could suggest that bombs used in the attack were triggered using timing devices. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4666591.stm Dear List Members, Dasha was Mo/Su/Mo/Ra/Ke.
