Police seize VCDs on jihad from terror suspect


The National Police has confiscated at least three VCDs on jihad from a terror suspect arrested in the West Java regency of Subang on Saturday.

Local neighborhood chief Yayat told kompas.com the VCDs were titled “Al Aqsha liberation series-solution to Palestinian crisis”, “Afghanistan jihad-The journey of the oppressed”, and “Tears shed from Chechnya”.

Officers from the bomb squad and forensic laboratory examined the house of the suspect in Dangdeur subdistrict between 4:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m., Yayat said.

Subang police arrested AG, his wife and a relative on Saturday. The police also seized a motorcycle.

West Java police chief Insp. Gen. Sutarman said a total of five people were arrested in Bandung city, Subang regency, Padalarang in West Bandung regency and Cileunyi in Bandung regency on Saturday.

Sutarman said the five people were allegedly involved in acts of terrorism in the country in the last few years. He added the arrests proved terror cells formed by Jamaah Islamiyah operators Noordin M. Top and Azahari bin Husin had remained alive.

Azahari was shot dead in Malang in November 2005, while Noordin was killed in a raid in Surakarta in September 2009.
