The terrorist noordin was dead

He was killed today in a police raid on a remote house in Central Java. After seven years on the run and many narrow escapes, the man behind every terrorist attack in Indonesia since 2002 has been killed in a police raid. The death of the Malaysian-born Noordin Mohammed Top has been confirmed by anti-terrorism sources. He is understood to have been killed by a combination of gunshot wounds and the impact of explosions which were seen to detonate inside the house police raided today in Beji village in the Central Java region of Temanggung. Another raid in Bekasi on the outskirts of Jakarta uncovered more than 100 kilograms of explosives including a car bomb which was to be detonated within the next few weeks, say police. They fear the motorcade of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono may have been among the intended targets.
