| Indonesian Police on Highest Alert after Terror Plot Revealed |
| 2015-12-22 |
| [AnNahar] Indonesian police said Monday they were on their highest terror alert after foiling plans for a suicide kaboom in Jakarta and arresting bully boyz linked to the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group. Three-day raids across Java ending Sunday saw the confiscation of kabooms, an IS-inspired flag and nine arrests. Several of the nabbed Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! men were allegedly linked to a planned suicide kaboom in Jakarta during the New Year celebrations, according to documents seized in the raids. A total of five suspects were arrested from a cell linked to the Islamic State, and four more from a cell linked to the Jemaah Islamiyah terror network behind several major assaults in Indonesia. The gunnies were targeting shopping malls, cop shoppes and minority groups across the country, the national police chief said. According to documents seized in the raids, police claim the two cells were identifying attack sites in Jakarta as well as West Java, Sumatra and Indonesian Borneo. "We are taking preventive actions. We are implementing the highest alert," said police chief Badrodin Haiti. "There are several things that (these groups) can do, like bombing or other violent acts such as shootings, burning, or unarmed attacks," he added. Other security officials said nearly 150,000 police and military officers would be dispatched to guard important sites between December 24 and January 2, when police would be extra vigilant. Haiti confirmed that the Australian Federal Police, the FBI and Singaporean authorities had assisted with uncovering the alleged terror plots. The increased security comes as senior ministers from Australia and Indonesia agreed to boost intelligence sharing, including on terrorism financing, following bilateral talks in both Sydney and Jakarta. Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim-majority country, suffered several major kabooms by Islamic bully boyz between 2000 and 2009, including the 2002 Bali bombings that killed 202 people. But a crackdown has weakened the most dangerous turban networks. However the emergence of IS has sparked alarm that Indonesians returning from battlefields in the Middle East could revive them. Indonesian police in August arrested three people with links to the IS group who were planning to launch kabooms during celebrations to mark the country's independence. |
