London bomb experts join hunt From: AAP By Rob Taylor October 05, 2005 AUSTRALIAN Federal Police in Bali have teamed up with Scotland Yard experts who have hard experience of London's tube bombings. Along with FBI agents, they are trying to find new clues on who planned and carried out the triple Kuta and Jimbaran attacks, which killed 22 people, including four Australians. Indonesian police, though, insisted they remain in charge of the overall investigation and the search for suspects. "We've been in contact with them and working with them, as well as a number of other foreign law enforcement agencies who are also working with the Indonesian National Police," AFP Commander Wayne Buchorn said. "I guess a lot of law enforcement agencies are keen to learn as much as we can." An AFP victim identification team was also working with their Indonesian counterparts at the Denpasar Morgue to try to confirm the identity of two bodies being held there, believed to be missing Newcastle couple Colin and Fiona Zwolinski. Team head Mick Travers said the AFP were working not only to find Australians, but also helping with the wider identification process. He warned it could be some time before the last Australian bodies would be sent home. Indonesian squads track five suspects Indonesian anti-terror squads are hunting for five suspects in a nationwide search for those responsible for the suicide bombings. All five are thought to be part of Jemaah Islamiah (JI) with links to two of the terrorist network's operatives now on death row for the 2002 Bali attacks. The wanted men were arrested soon after that terrorist strike and some served brief prison terms for possessing explosives, police said. Bali police today were examining their arrest mugshots in case some of the five were among Saturday night's three dead bombers, whose severed heads have been widely publicised across Indonesia. Raids carried out on homes in Banten near the capital Jakarta found no trace of the men who disappeared in the weeks before Saturday night's bombings. The search was launched as a sombre President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono ordered his security forces to intensify the fight against terrorism, saying the deadly blasts had blackened the country's image. The wanted five are linked to the so-called field commander of the 2002 blasts, Imam Samudra, as well as the field commander of last year's Australian embassy bombing, Rois, both of whom are currently awaiting execution. After touring the blast sites today, Bali police chief General Made Mangku Pastika said the search in Banten had been only part of a national sweep. "We have sent information to every police province across the country," Pastika said. In a speech marking the 60th anniversary of Indonesia's powerful military, President Yudhoyono called on the armed forces to "take a technical and strategic role in fighting and preventing future attacks". "The terrorist acts have spoiled Indonesia's reputation in the eyes of the world," he said. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
