8 more questioned over Ambon blast
JAKARTA: Following the arrest of four suspects in last week's bomb blast at the
Mardika market in Ambon, Maluku police are questioning eight more people in
connection with the explosion.
National Police spokesman Insp. Gen. Aryanto Boedihardjo said Ongen Rahyantel,
Faisal Rahman, Salim Rumbia, Salamun, Said Kaliki, Kamrin Makatita, Marwan Leka
and Hasan Paliswa were being questioned as witnesses, although investigators had
found strong prima facie evidence that they had been involved in the incident.
"Whether we will charge these eight as new suspects will depend on the results of the
questioning," Aryanto said.
Police are still seeking three suspects who are believed to have mastermind the
bombing. They are ARS, JBR and WL. -- JP
