Beirut - Fatah al-Islam, an al-Qaeda-linked militant movement, on Monday denied any links with the September 27 bomb attack in the Syrian capital that killed 17 people.
"We deny any involvement in the Damascus blast ... and the allegations which were shown on (Syrian) television," Fatah al-Islam said in a statement faxed to the media in Beirut.
The statement followed allegations by alleged Fatah al-Islam members in a 40-minute television report aired on state-run television in Syria last week.
