Indonesian police arrest more suspects in Makassar blasts
Indonesian police in the province of South Sulawesi have arrested three more
suspects in December's Makassar blasts which left three people killed.
South Sulawesi chief police detective, Senior Commissioner Achmadi Abdi, said that
the three suspects were arrested separately on Thursday and have been sent to
Makassar.
Police have already arrested 21 suspects in the bombing case.
The Makassar bombings took place less than two months after the Bali bomb blasts
that killed more than 190 people on October 12.
Police have said some of the suspects in the Makassar bombings knew those behind
the Bali blasts.
A further three suspects are still on the run.
