Sumatra bombing kills 1
2004-07-20
A bomb exploded in a village close to Indonesia's third largest city, killing one person and injuring several others, media reports said. The explosion occurred in the village of Sei Bingei, just east of the industrial city of Medan on Sumatra island, state news agency Antara reported. The reports gave no details on the circumstances behind the blast, the latest in a series of small explosions in towns across Indonesia in recent days. The explosions come amid police warnings that terrorists in the world's most populous Muslim nation might attempt to disrupt its ongoing election process. Next week, the country will announce the results of July 5 presidential elections.
