Indonesian police post reward for fugitive Malaysian bombers
2005-10-25
JAKARTA - Indonesian police are promising almost 100,000 dollars for anyone with information leading to the arrest of two Malaysian bomb experts suspected of masterminding blasts in Bali on October 1, police said on Monday. The one billion rupiah (99,260 dollars) bounty was announced as police planned to distribute 600,000 leaflets with photographs of fugitives Azahari Husin and Noordin Mohammad Top and three suicide bombers from the October 1 attacks on the Indonesian resort island.
I'll take the reward in dollars -- I think I'd get a hernia lifting one billion rupiahs.
National Chief Police Detective Makbul Padmanegara said police were also offering one million rupiah (99.26 dollars) in cash to anyone able to identify any of the three suicide bombers.
Yeah boy, a hunnert bucks, that'll do it. Cheapskates.
The heads of the bombers were recovered relatively undamaged at the sites of the blasts, which also killed 20 other people. But their identities remain unknown more than three weeks after the attacks at restaurants in southern Bali, prompting the distribution of the leaflets across the country, including in residential areas, Padmanegara said.

#1  There's always the possibility the suicide bombers aren't Indonesians. They could be from the Philippines or Malaysia, or even imported from Pakistan or the Middle East. That would provide even greater security for those behind the plot.
