The head of a Spanish anti-terrorist unit has been murdered in an Eta a car-bomb attack.

Chief Inspector Eduardo Puelles García died instantly when a limpet mine attached to his car exploded at 9.05am. The attack took place in car park near his home in Arrigarriga, near Bilbao.

A neighbour who heard the blast said it was so strong that his bed moved. Four other vehicles were damaged but no one else was hurt. Television pictures showed flames shooting out of the vehicle.

The murder of Mr Puelles, 49, comes exactly 22 years since Eta’s worst terrorist attack, the bombing of the Hipercor supermarket in Barcelona in which 21 people died and 40 were injured. >>>MORE>>>
