Gaza Hamas police seize hardline extremist Muslim
An extremist Islamic group in Gaza says its spiritual leader has been arrested by Hamas police. The group - Monotheism and Holy War - announced Sunday that Sheik Abu Walid al-Maqdasi was seized last week. Hamas official Salah Bardawil confirmed the arrest.
Al-Maqdasi's group shares the same name as an al-Qaeda inspired group suspected in hotel bombings in Egypt's Sinai desert between 2004 and 2005 that killed more than 120 people. It's not clear if it's the same group. (AP)
