A television cameraman films a cellar where police found 100 kg (220 lb) of materials used to make explosives in Milan October 13, 2009. A Libyan man who tried to bomb a Milan army barracks had accomplices and belonged to a group that had more explosives ready, Italian police said on Tuesday. Newspapers said the 35-year-old failed suicide bomber, Mohammed Game, who was seriously wounded in the attack, was an unsuccessful businessman who turned to militant Islam and wanted Italy to pull out of Afghanistan. Police said they had arrested two suspected accomplices -- an Egyptian and a Libyan -- and found 100 kg of "fertilisers and other materials", used to make explosives, at one of their homes.
