Poso bombers still at large

PALU, Central Sulawesi: Five days after a bombing outside two
non-governmental organization offices in Poso, police say they
are still in the dark as to who the perpetrators are.

"Until today, we haven't been able to arrest those
responsible," Central Sulawesi police chief Brig. Gen. Aryanto
Sutadi said.

The bomb exploded outside the offices of the Center of Peace
and Conflict Resolution and the Institute of the Civil Society
Empowerment in Poso last Wednesday. There were no casualties.

Police suspected the bombs were related to the activities of
the two organizations, which recently reported to police an
alleged misappropriation of funds meant for Poso refugees
amounting to Rp 2.1 billion (US$221,052). -- JP
