Bali Bomb Suspect Said To Confess
The alleged mastermind of last month's deadly nightclub bombings in Bali has confessed to planning and executing the attack that killed nearly 200 people, a top investigator said Friday. ``He has already confessed,'' said Gen. I Made Mangku Pastika, who is heading the investigation.
"Uh... Those guys in the shorts? Are they, uh... Australian?"
"Sure are."
"You, uh... You ain't gonna let them..."
"Sure am."
"I confess. I dunnit! Just don't let 'em get me!"
Police arrested Imam Samudra late Thursday on a bus in the port of Merak on Indonesia's main island of Java as he tried to reach a ferry bound for the western island of Sumatra. It was the biggest breakthrough of the investigation into the Oct. 12 blasts. Authorities now say they are confident that his remaining accomplices will be captured soon.
Here's hoping they don't "forget" and let this guy out again...
