AlQa'dah 14, 1436, Aug 29, 2015, SPA -- Nigeria has uncovered a spy cell run by terrorist militant group Boko Haram at the international airport in the capital Abuja apparently aimed at selecting targets for attack, Reuters cited the country's national security agency as saying. In a statement early on Saturday, the Department of State Services (DSS) said it discovered the ring on Monday and was working with aviation authorities to pre-empt any attack. The DSS said it had arrested a 14-year-old boy who said he had been instructed to spy on the airport's security procedures, including passenger screening and boarding processes, and report what he had learned. It said the man who directed the boy had not been located. "The service, in liaison with the aviation security of Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, disrupted a spying network mounted by the Boko Haram terrorists," DSS spokesman Tony Opuiyo said in the statement.
