Defence forces and bombs-sniffing dogs searched the building and staff were not allowed to approach for about three hours. "No explosives were found, it is a false alert," Colonel Mohammed al-Saber, Interior Ministry spokesman, said after police allowed staff to return to the bourse building assuring them that it was safe. The threat came after the end of Monday's trading session, officials said. The high-rise stone and glass building is home to trading houses and brokerages, forms a central part of the city's financial district and is surrounded by major banks. Kuwait's stock exchange is the second largest by value in the Middle East. Police and security guards told bystanders not to approach the building and ambulances stood at the ready nearby until the search for the suspected explosives was over. After the September 11, 2001 attacks on U.S. cities, there were a number of al Qaeda-inspired attacks in Kuwait, including a raid that killed one U.S. Marine and wounded another in October 2002. The government has since waged a largely successful campaign to stamp out violence by Islamist militants. In August of 2009, Kuwaiti authorities foiled an al Qaeda-linked plan to bomb a U.S. Army camp and an oil refinery in the OPEC oil exporting state. In the past year, shopping malls and schools in Kuwait have also been the target of bomb threats which later turned out to be bogus.
