Police detained today four members of the extremist anti-Semitic Tacuara youth group in a spectacular raid on a workshop where they found a substantial quantity of gelignite, a material used for making explosives.
The police also found firearms and a stolen car. Initially, the raid had been aimed only at recovering the auto but subsequently the Tacuara members confessed to possession of the explosive material.
