I can confirm for you - Ankara Turkey 2003. Conference on Terrorism at the main Police Admin Building in Ankara. Janitor finds a bag left unattended inside a room adjacent to where confrence is to begin in 45 mins. Janitor goes to summon help and bag cranks off. Post blast is conducted by ALL bomb techs and EOD supervisors already there on scene for conference. Local terrorsit group is suspected.
2 hrs later, SAME janitor finds a second
identical bag and picks it up, walks it out of the building and flings it into the courtyard. This time bomb techs and EOD personnel walk out of confrence to identical bag and begin to monkey ---- same. RF energy abounds as people on cell phones and motorola radio on lead tech (Mr. S.S.) are utilized. Lead tech decides to hand enter to render safe - bag has other ideas. No one killed - two WIA pretty bad.
Stupid is as stupid does.
