NICOSIA: The spokesman for Syria's Muslim Brotherhood, Zuhair Salem, denied Saturday an Internet claim of responsibility by the group for suicide bombings in Damascus, saying it was on a fake website created by the regime.
Salem, speaking from London, said the claim was “completely fabricated under our name on the Internet.”
It was “completely orchestrated by the regime, just as the attacks were,” he added.
Earlier, a website purporting to be that of the Muslim Brotherhood, claimed that four suicide bombers had carried out the Friday bombings, in which 44 died and 166 were hurt, and threatened more attacks.
