T

he National Police’s Detachment 88 anti-terror squad arrested a 40-year-old mechanic in Kendal regency, Central Java, on Sunday for alleged links to terrorism. In total, three alleged terrorists were arrested in the province on Sunday.

The mechanic, identified as Roh, was inside his home when three Detachment 88 officers raided the house and apprehended him, according to Roh’s employee, Gito.
