Syria airs car bomb 'confessions'

Syrian state TV has shown what it says are confessions
by 11 militants behind the car bomb attack in Damascus
in September which left 17 people dead.

Among the 10 men and one woman shown was Abdul Baqi
al-Hussein, described as being responsible for security
for Fatah al-Islam, a Sunni Islamist group.

Fatah al-Islam fought the Lebanese army in a refugee
camp in Tripoli last year.

The broadcast also showed a photo of a man said to have
been the suicide bomber in the September attack.
