JAKARTA (JP): The National Police bomb squad (Gegana) combed
Pondok Indah Mall in South Jakarta and Honoris Tangerang Hospital
for bombs on Saturday, following bomb threats made by anonymous
callers.

According to city police records, Saturday's first bomb hoax
occurred at Pondok Indah Mall, when Asep, 30, a mall security
guard, received an anonymous phone call at 11 a.m.

"The bomb squad arrived and combed the place. Nothing was
found," City Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Anton Bachrul Alam said on
Sunday.

when receptionist Herawati, 28, received a call at 12:40 p.m. on

explode.
