SINGAPORE, July 21 (Xinhua) -- Singapore said here on Monday it did not
rule out the possibility that Mas Selamat, head of the country's Jemaah
Islamiyah (JI) terrorist network, has escaped to foreign countries.
"We obviously cannot dismiss the possibility that Mas Selamat could have
managed to escape Singapore for another country. Singapore is not a
fortress," said Singapore's Deputy Prime Minister and Home Affairs Minister
Wong Kan Seng in the Parliamenton Monday.
Wong said that Singapore's security agencies have so far not received
any information from their Indonesian counterparts to confirm that the
fugitive is hiding in the neighboring country.
However, if Mas Selamat has escaped abroad, Wong said, the city state
will work with the relevant foreign counterparts to track him down and bring
him back to justice in Singapore.
Meanwhile, two private individuals in Singapore have offered a cash
reward of 1 million Singapore dollars (one U.S. dollar equals1.35 Singapore
dollars) for information leading to the apprehension of Mas Selamat inside
or outside Singapore.
Mas Selamat, who was wanted by the Singaporean authorities in connection
with planned attacks on the Changi airport, was arrested by the Indonesian
police on Bintan island in 2006 and then sent back to Singapore. But he
escaped from Singapore's Whitley road detention center later February this
year.
