he National Police counter-terrorism unit, Densus 88, raided a shop allegedly rented by a terrorist suspect at Cimahi, West Java, on Friday, as a follow-up investigation after an earlier raid in Bandung regency where three alleged terrorists were shot dead.

West Java Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Martinus Sitompul said that the raided shop was believed to be operated by Budi Syarif alias Angga, one of the terrorists who was killed during the raid. '€œWe raided [the shop] to look for evidence,'€ said Martinus, as quoted by kompas.com.

Cimahi Police detective chief Adj. Comr. Sudjana said a box and three commando knives were confiscated from the shop that was used to provide air-conditioner maintenance service. '€œThe dangerous materials were taken directly by the West Java Police.... I only know about the commando knives,'€ Sudjana said without giving details.

Previously on Wednesday, Densus 88 raided a house in Cigondewah, Bandung regency and killed the three terrorist suspects after a gunfight. Another suspect, identified as HR, surrendered and was arrested by the police.

On Thursday, Densus 88 also raided a boarding house rented by a man identified with his initial D at Kiaracondong, Bandung, and seized a rifle, bullets of various sizes and explosive materials .(nai)
