Top terror suspect seized by US

Friday, 15 Aug, 2003 0

A 36-year old man described as the mastermind behind the Bali bombing has been captured by the United States.

The man is wanted in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and the Philippines in connection with a series of bomb attacks.

BBC News said it was believed he was seized in Thailand, but this has not yet been confirmed.

The Bali bombs in two nightclubs claimed the lives of more than 200 people, mostly young Western tourists.

As well as being linked to last year’s Bali attack, the man’s group has been blamed for the recent JW Marriott Hotel bombing in Jakarta.
