Thanks For Keeping Your Promise
A British-educated bombmaker, Azahari bin Husin, believed to have masterminded the 2002 Bali tourist bar bombings, kept his promise when cornered by Indonesian Army D-88 forces. Detachment 88 is Indonesia’s terrorist hunters. Members of the anti-guerilla unit said his body was “in pieces but his face was recognizable,” after he detonated two explosions when the unit cornered him on November 8. Fingerprints later agreed with the ID.
Azahari was linked to the bombings in Jakarta in 2003, the Australian embassy last year, and last month’s suicide bombings in Bali; Scotland Yard has been investigating claims that the leader of London’s July 7 bombers visited Azahari in Malaysia in 2002 and 2003.
Azahari had boasted that he always wore a suicide vest, as he was determined never to be captured; we thank him for keeping his word. [from The Times Online (UK)]
