Four nabbed over church bombing
JAKARTA: Four men have been arrested over a petrol bomb attack
on a Roman Catholic church last month in Sleman regency,
Yogyakarta, Brig. Gen. Pranowo, director of an antiterror unit,
said on Thursday.
He said the four were arrested in Sleman on Wednesday and
would be charged over the June 9 attack on the Santo Yusuf
church.
A small fire burnt part of the church's front gate and fence
but no one was hurt.
"We are still working on this case. We haven't touched the
brain behind this attack because so far they refuse to talk,"
Pranowo said.
Mobs in June also attacked four churches in two neighboring
suburbs of Jakarta, slightly injuring a priest and causing
damage. --AFP
