Investigators found a bomb-making factory, Marilyn Ogar, a spokeswoman for the service, said in an e-mailed statement today. The suspects, including a citizen of neighboring Niger, are also alleged to have killed four policemen May 22 in Bwari, a suburb of the capital, and will soon be charged, she said.
