Yogyakarta (Antara Bali) - Police anti-terrorist squad Densus 88 arrested a man believed to be a terrorist in Cupuwatu village, Sleman, Yogyakarta, on Tuesday evening.
"Yesterday, an arrest was made for an alleged terrorist, who has so far been on the wanted list and is known by his initials SF (25)," the head of public relations at the Yogyakarta regional police command, Adjunct Senior Commissioner Anny Pudjiastuti, said on Wednesday.
She said the arrest of the alleged terrorist from Solo, Central Java, was made by members of Densus 88 at the National Police Headquarters at around 6.30pm while he was traveling on the road between Solo and Yogyakarta, and did not involve the Yogyakarta police command.
"The technicality and process of the arrest was handled by Jakarta," she said.
Pudjiastuti said the arrest came in the wake of another alleged terrorist being arrested in Solo, Central Java, on August 12.
"This is a result of the developments following the recent arrest in Solo," she said.
She said further developments in the case would be handled by the National Police Headquarters (Mabes). "It is currently being handled by Mabes. So its development is fully in the hands of Mabes," she stated.
On August 12, Densus 88 had arrested three men believed to be members of a terrorist group.
They were identified as Ibadurahman (19), a resident of Semanggi RT06 RW04, Pasar Kliwon, Solo, Yus Karman (31), a resident of Semanggi RT05 RW03, Pasar Kliwon, Solo, and Sugiyanto alias Gento (35), a resident of Semanggi RT06 RT05, Pasar Kliwon, Solo. (WDY)
