Cyanide terrorist taken to Jakarta

A police official has unveiled that the police have taken four terrorist suspects to the police’s mobile brigade detention center for further questioning.

The suspects, he added, were Haryanto Abdul Jabar alias Furkon, Anang Muhtadin alias Papa Enal, Ali Miftah and Ali Firmansyah alias Ibrahim.

“They are part of the Poso terrorist group,” National Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Boy Rafli Amar said Monday as quoted by kompas.com. “Some used to work with Dulmatin as well.”

Boy said the suspects were part of the terrorist group that planned to poison the police’s food stocks with cyanide.

“Poisoning food could be their latest modus operandi in their terror quest. That is what we have learned from the recent arrest,” Boy said.

He also said the police had recently arrested 16 people allegedly related to terrorist activities in various places such as Kutai Kartanegara,East Kalimantan, Pekalongan, Kemayoran, Central Jakarta, Tegal, Central Java.
