Afghanistan girl, 8, wearing suicide vest detained
An eight-year-old Afghan girl wearing a suicide vest has been detained by police in southern Afghanistan. She was held on Sunday night in Helmand province, as she tried to carry out an attack against border police wearing a suicide jacket, a spokesman for the Afghan interior ministry told the BBC. The girl, thought to be the sister of a prominent Taliban commander, is said to be in a state of shock and confusion.
