Era building gets bomb threat

JAKARTA (JP): The National Police bomb squad (Gegana) removed
a package thought to contain a bomb from the Menara Era building
in Senen, Central Jakarta, on Friday, after an anonymous caller
said the building would soon be blown up.

People working inside the 15-story building rushed out after
learning that the building's receptionist, Nuni Suryani, had
received an anonymous telephone call at 1:30 p.m. from a man who
said that the building would soon be blown up by a bomb.

"The entire security team combed the building for the package.
We found it near the parking lot ... and immediately informed the
police," Edi, a security guard, told reporters on Friday.

As of Thursday evening, the bomb squad was still examining the
package. (ylt)
