(AKI) - Police are hunting a number of terror suspects allegedly involved in several blasts in North Aceh, Indonesia's Antara news agency reported on Monday. "A series of grenade throwing had disrupted people's peacefulness. We have to intensity our investigation," said Aceh provincial police spokesman Sr. Comr. Jodi Heriyadi, quoted by Antara.The latest incident occurred when a grenade exploded outside the home of a former rebel spokesman in Aceh province, but caused no injuries. The blast shattered the front windows of Sofyan Dawood's house in the northern town of Lhokseumawe, said local police chief Benny Gunawan. He was not home at the time of the attack, but other family members at the house were not injured. Police were collecting shrapnel for investigation. There were no witnesses and no arrests had been made, he said, adding that the motive for the attack was unclear.
My guess is that somebody wanted to blow his house up. What's yours?
Residents in the provincial capital, Banda Aceh were last Tuesday terrorised by two grenade attacks there. One of the grenades hit the Aceh Mobile Brigade police headquarters in the Aceh capital of Banda Aceh on Tuesday. The other was aimed at the residence of Lhokseumawe deputy mayor Suadi Yahya, a former GAM member, on Monday evening. Even though the grenade attack at the police headquarters did not cause any casualties, the operational vehicles belonging to the Mobile Brigade unit were damaged.
Yahya was away at the time of the attack on his residence. The grenade was thrown onto the roof of the house's security post and exploded three meters away after falling into the garden. The explosion broke window glass at the front part of the house and damaged the walls. There were no casualties.
