Two men arrested in October in
Poland have admitted taking part
in bomb attacks on Ikea stores in
Germany, France, the Netherlands,
the Czech Republic and Belgium,
including an explosive device
which went off in Ikea in Ghent.
The plot was an attempt to extort
€6 million from the company to
prevent further attacks. In all, eight
explosions took place, and two
people were injured in an attack in
Germany.
