Three bombs found at two separate sites in capital<\/p>\n
JAKARTA (JP): Three bombs were found in separate locations
\nhere on Monday, alarming city residents who have yet to get over
\nlast Thursday's bombing in South Jakarta, which claimed at least
\nthree lives.<\/p>\n
The police said the first two bombs were found on a ship, at
\nSunda Kelapa Port in North Jakarta, while the other one, a
\nsuitcase bomb, was found at the Gedung Wanita bus-stop on Jl. Cik
\nDitiro in Menteng, Central Jakarta,<\/p>\n
\"Two homemade bombs, and a rifle were found on board the KM
\nLayur, which arrived from Riau at the Sunda Kelapa Port, at 10
\na.m. on Monday. The ship was heading for Ambon,\" Sunda Kelapa
\nPolice Chief. Brig. Dwi said.<\/p>\n
Five people on board the ship, including the captain, are
\ncurrently being interrogated by Sunda Kelapa Police, Dwi said.<\/p>\n
Jakarta Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Anton Bachrul Alam said a
\nman had found a suitcase at the bus-stop and immediately reported
\nit to the police, since he found it very suspicious.<\/p>\n
\"Several people in the area have said that they had seen the
\nsuitcase for a few days lying there, unopened,\" Anton told
\nreporters.<\/p>\n
Separately, city police Chief Insp. Gen. Sofjan Yacob said on
\nMonday, in relation to Thursday's bombing in Guntur, that the
\npolice would summon the coordinator of the Aceh Referendum
\nInformation Center (Sira) Faisal Saifuddin, and Solidarity for
\nPeace in East Timor (Solidamor) coordinator Bonar Tigor
\nNaipospos.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, National Police sources have stated that the
\nincident's primary suspect, Taufik Abdullah, had received
\nspecific instructions from Gafi, another suspect at large, at
\nleast five days before the bombing.<\/p>\n
\"The instruction was, to bomb several places in Jakarta,
\nshould soldiers be sent to Aceh. This is what Taufik has told
\ncity police detectives,\" a top National Police official who
\nrequested anonymity told The Jakarta Post.<\/p>\n
\"One of the men who died in the blast, Kardu alias Du alias
\nAbu, was a bomb-assembler who had been called by Gafi, the Sira
\nactivist, to come to Jakarta, to make bombs. Du, however, died in
\nthe blast.\" (ylt)<\/p>",
