Indonesia detains 13 linked to terror camps
2010-03-03
Indonesia has detained 13 suspects believed to have been from a group taking part in an Islamic terrorist militant training camp in a remote part of Aceh province, a national police spokesman said on Wednesday. Police from the elite anti-terrorism unit were still searching for dozens more suspects who had fled during a raid on the camp last week, said spokesman Edward Aritonang. "Among those captured, several were trainers who it appears had received training overseas," said Aritonang, who declined to elaborate.

Aritonang said three rifles, 8,000 bullets, and other documents linking the suspects to an Islamic militant group had been seized. "We don't know what their targets were, or for what reasons, because we are still hunting dozens more from the group," he said.

The local Kompas newspaper reported that the Aceh group may have links with perpetrators who were convicted for the 2004 Australian embassy bombing in Jakarta.

During the raid last week, commando knives, VCDs on the Bali bombings, books about jihad, military uniforms and millions of rupiah in cash, were also found, Aceh's police chief said.
