JAKARTA (JP): The National Police bomb squad (Gegana) are
examining two suspected bomb packages, found by seven school
students on Jl. Tarumanegara in the village of Pisangan, Ciputat,
South Jakarta, on Wednesday evening.

"Bomb squad members have so far only stated that the packages
contain about 9 steel rods... they have said nothing about bombs
yet. Police are still examining the rods," City Police spokesman
Sr. Comr. Anton Bachrul Alam told The Jakarta Post on Thursday.

The packages, he said, were found by seven students of the
nearby Khasanah foundation at about 3 p.m. on Wednesday.

Police are questioning the students over the finding. (ylt)
