Police arrests cyber terrorists

Indonesian police claim to have arrested two men who helped imprisoned Bali bomber Imam Samudra to use the internet to raise funds for more terrorist attacks.

Samudra used a notebook computer connected to the internet from his prison cell to urge others to carry out terrorist acts, police say. The computer was provided by two alleged “cyber-terrorists”, they claim. Police uncovered a large number of communications in the lead-up to the second Bali bombings last October.

Agung Prabowo and Agung Seyadi also allegedly helped to establish a website last year giving detailed instructions on killing foreigners in Jakarta. Both were arrested last week.
