[ADN Kronos] Indonesian police have begun distributing photos of terror suspect, Noordin M. Top to the public as they continue to hunt him down following the recent bombings in Jakarta against two luxury hotels that killed nine people and injured scores more.Indonesian site Kompas.com reported from Banyumas, Central Java that many of Noordin's photos could be found at the local train station.
Police began to post Noordin's photos at the Purwokerto train station walls and on train windows at 5.30 a.m. local time, and handed out copies of the photos to passengers.
Local police senior official, Adj. Comr. Suryono asked people to call the police should they see someone who resembles Noordin.
"We have chosen trains as they cover wide areas and many people use them," he said.
He said police suspect that Noordin remained in Central Java.
Al-Qaeda linked fugitive Noordin M. Top is connected to the bombings, top government anti-terrorism officials believe. Top is wanted for plotting the Bali bombings of 2002 which killed 202 people and for other Indonesian attacks.
The 17 July bomb blasts at the JW Marriott and Ritz-Carlton hotels in Jakarta's business district killed nine people, mostly foreigners, and injured scores more.
Meanwhile on Wednesday, Arina, the alleged wife of Noordin M. Top was released from police custody after seven days of interrogation.
Arina earlier acknowledged that Noordin's picture resembled her husband, a man she knew as Ade Abdul Halim.
However, Arina chooses to remain under police protection for her safety.
"Arina is still a witness," her lawyer, Asludin Hatjani said Wednesday.
"She, her two children and her mother are staying in a house guarded by five policewomen."
The man she knew as Ade and her father, Bahrudin, fled before police raided their homes in Cilacap, Central Java, earlier this month.
