Terorism in Indonesia is less dangerous compared to
corruption. The latter takes away the future of the

car-bomb attack on the president," Tito said, adding the plot against the
president was uncovered after a raid in Jati Asih, Bekasi, several weeks after
the hotel bombings.

three more suspects arrested in Medan in April were still to be prosecuted.
Sources at the police have said the three Medan suspects are Deni Suramto, who
allegedly bought the explosives for the hotel attacks; Bayu Sena, the suspected
bomb maker; and Pandu Wicaksono.
