Jerusalem police who Wednesday discovered a bomb lab run by an Israeli Jew believe that the explosives were to be sold to criminals, although are still investigating whether he planned to sell to Palestinian militants as well.
 
Hanan Yadgarov, 29, from Pisgat Ze'ev was arrested two weeks ago after selling a three-kilogram bomb to an undercover police officer for NIS 25,000, said the city police spokesman, Shmulik Ben-Ruby.
 
Yadgarov was remanded for 10 days.
 
Police found explosives, ready-to-use bombs, Israeli and Russian army uniforms, police uniforms and bomb detonators in a Jerusalem apartment, Ben-Ruby said.
 
The undercover police officer asked Yadgarov "if it [the bomb] could also blow up on buses and he said yes," Ben-Ruby said.
 
He said Yadgarov's motives were still under investigation, although police sources say he was in the business of selling explosives to criminals rather than terrorists.
