Swazi army, police camp bombed

    JOHANNESBURG
    Two Swazi security officers were injured when an explosion suspected to be a bomb, hit the KaMkhweli police and army camp on Monday night in the eastern part of Swaziland, PANA quoted local news reports as saying on Wednesday. The camp, which the unknown attackers targeted, was set up earlier this year to accommodate police and army officers deployed to the KaMkheli and Macetjeni areas, at the height of a leadership dispute between Prince Maguga and Chiefs Mtfuso Dlamini and Mliba Fakudze who had been evicted from their chiefdoms.
