Al-Qaida 'funded Indonesian suicide bombings'
Osama bin Laden’s terror network helped fund all of the suicide bombings in Indonesia in the past four years, a senior police official said today, highlighting links between al-Qaida and the regional militant group Jemaah Islamiyah.
Money for the attacks, which have occurred annually in the world’s most populous Muslim country since 2002, was delivered by courier to leaders of Jemaah Islamiyah, said Col. Petrus Reinhard Golose, of Indonesia’s counterterrorism task force.
