Suspected Jakarta bombing ‘mastermind’ was trained in Pak | In yet another case which determines that terror is Pakistan’s principle export, it has been revealed that the prime suspect of the July 2009 Jakarta hotel attacks received military training in Pakistan. Indonesia’s national police chief
General Bambang Hendarso Danuri disclosed that Mohamad Jibril, who allegedly provided
funds for the terror group responsible for the bombings, received training in
Pakistan during 1999-2000. “Jibril received military training from several Jemaah
Islamiyah activists for about a year, from 1999- 2000,” Bambang told the House
of Representatives. “The training was conducted in Pakistan while he was studying
there,” he added. Mohamad Jibril alias Mohamad Rizky Ardhan alias Muhammad Jibriel
Abdul Rahman was arrested two weeks ago. He is believed to have played a key role
in raising funds for the terrorist group led by Noordin Top, who belongs to Malaysia.
The Indonesian police suspect that the money was coming from Middle Easte countries
such as Saudi Arabia and Yemen, however, it is yet to arrive on any conclusion.
Officials said they are still working to find more solid evidence against Jibril,
who was nabbed after his cell phone number was found in Ali Muhammad bin Abdullah’s
mobile phone. Ali is a Saudi Arabian who was arrested a few days before Jibril,
the jihadwatch.org reports. It has also been revealed that Jibril’s uncle, Irfan
S Awwas, was the chairman of a radical Islamic organization , Indonesia Mujahidin
Council (MMI). |
