Bomb Found In Buenos Aires Theatre -- The Telegraph
A bomb has been found in a theatre in Buenos Aires where Alvaro Uribe, the former Colombian president, was due to speak.
Mr Uribe, known for tough law-and-order policies during his 2002-2010 presidency in Colombia, is scheduled to speak at the Grand Rex theatre in downtown Buenos Aires on Wednesday and still intends to honour the engagement.
Theatre security and maintenance personnel found the bomb on the second floor, where Uribe plans "to host a cocktail party with many personalities" after a press conference, investigating Judge Norberto Oyarbide said.
A justice official said the mobile phone-activated bomb was hidden in a lamp.
