Depok (ANTARA News) - The nine terror suspects arrested in Palembang, South Sumatra, during the past two days arrived at the Mobile Brigade (Brimob) Headquarters` detention center in Kelapa Dua, Depok, at 11 am Thursday under heavy guard.
With their heads covered in hoods, the nine men arrived in a bus guarded by members of the police`s anti-terror detachment riding in three other vehicles - one in front of, and two behind, the prisoners` bus.
After going through a checking-in procedure, the nine suspects were led to a cell located in the back part of a block housing the Mobile Brigade Headquarters` internal affairs unit.
None of the police officers at the Mobile Brigade Headquarters or the prisoners` guards was prepared to make any comments to reporters covering the happening. They only said they did not know anything about the prisoners.
Earlier in the day, at 08.25 West Indonesian Time, the nine men were put on a police plane at Palembang`s Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II Airport and, at precisely 09.00, flown to Jakarta.
A National Police Headquarters` spokesman was on Thursday still unable to provide further explanations on the arrests which took place in Palembang over the past two days.
He could only give the initials of the nine men and disclose that a number of improvised explosive devices and a still undetermined volume of explosive material were confiscated during a raid on a house in South Sumatra`s provincial capital.(*)
