Indonesian police arrest four suspected terrorists
Last Updated:
Indonesian police say they have arrested four people after a major raid on a terrorist training camp in a remote region of Aceh province.
They say they are also pursuing dozens who escaped.
Aceh police chief Aditya Warman says some 50 militants were using the camp.
He says they are strongly suspected of being part of the regional terrorist group Jemaah Islamiyah, blamed for multiple attacks across Indonesia.
More than 100 heavily armed police took part in the raid just before midnight on Monday in a forested part of Aceh Besar district, east of the provincial capital Banda Aceh.
