Bomb-related material was found during raids in Barcelona which led to the arrest of 14 people suspected of links to terrorism.
Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said, suspects included 12 from Pakistan and two from India. The Civil Guard detained the suspects in Barcelona as part of a joint operation with Spain's National Intelligence Centre (CNI).

Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero said that it was too early to arrive at any conclusions as to what the suspects might have been planning.
"Let's be as cautious as is advisable in these cases, with regard to the scope, intentions and what this group of radical activists represent," he said.
