Policeman killed in Spain car bomb
The blast targeted a police barracks in the Basque town of Legutiano in northern Spain.
Separatists blamed
The Spanish media has attributed the blast to the armed separatist group from Basque, Euskadi ta Askatasuna (ETA), also known as the Basque Homeland and Freedom movement in Basque.
Spanish police said that no group had claimed the responsibility of the blast and that there was no warning before the attack.
ETA has been blamed for over 820 deaths during its four-decade-old fight for a separate Basque nation, taking in parts of northwestern Spain and southwestern France.
It had announced a “permanent ceasefire” in March 2006 but called it off in June 2007, saying it was frustrated with a lack of concessions by the socialist government during the peace talks.
