Cianjur (Antara Bali) - About 20 men were named suspect in a violent attack on members of the Ahmadiyah sect on Friday (Feb 17) in Cisaar village, police said.
"Though we have not yet detained them, the suspects are obliged to report to us periodically. Up till now, we are still collecting data and investigating the motive behind the attack," Cianjur police chief Adjunct Senior Commissioner Agus Tri Heriyanto said here on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, one of the suspects, Asep, admitted he and his associates had committed the Friday attack but they had done it, he said, because the Ahmadiyah members insisted on conducting their religious services in the neighborhood.
"We warned them several times not to continue their activities. But they kept doing it," Asep said.(IGT)
