Police say prints from Jamal Zougam and Abderrahim Zbakh were found at a countryside house near Morata de Tajuna used to prepare hazardous devices for the March 11 attacks. Detonators and traces of hazardous material were also recovered, with authorities linking Zougam to an al Qaida cell in Spain. A French investigator ties Abu Musab al Zarqawi to the operation, claiming contact with suspects prior to the attack. The case involves multiple detainees and a videotape claiming al Qaida responsibility.
