Bombs found in terror hideout
Known as the “Demolition Man” for his expertise with explosives, Azahari bin Husin was a key figure in Jemaah Islamiyah, a terror network with links to al-Qaida that has been blamed for a series of deadly bombings as well as failed plots in Indonesia, the Philippines and Singapore.
The discovery of the bombs indicated Jemaah Islamiyah was preparing more attacks. The bombs included small devices easily contained in backpacks - similar to ones used in the July London Underground attacks and in last month’s suicide strikes on three crowded restaurants on the resort island of Bali, said police chief General Sutanto.
