The 50-year-old suspected terrorist, identified by his initials, E alias AR alias Mr. Jenggot, was arrested at Raya Bogor Street in Nanggewer village, Cibinong sub-district, Bogor district, West Java province, on Friday, Head of the Public Relations Bureau of the Indonesian Police Brigadier General Dedi Prasetyo said.
"It is true that Densus is still thoroughly investigating the case in the field," he said.
E was arrested after Densus investigated another suspected terrorist identified by his initials, THB, who was arrested in Pemalang district, Central Java, last Saturday (May 13, 2019).
It is still unclear which terrorist network E alias Mr. Jenggot belongs to, and neither is his role in the terrorist act.
