Another success for Detachment 88 (Densus 88) 

Last weekend's capture of Abu Dujana, the supposed head of territorial psychological militant organization Jemaah Islamiyah (JI), by Indonesia's enemy of fear crew has deservedly won Jakarta inescapable commendation. The catch of the Afghan-prepared assailant may likewise assist with hosing reestablished energy in the US Congress for one more proposition to slice military guide to Jakarta. One of the most significant advantages of the nearer connection between President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and President George W Bush has been the reinforcing of the US-prepared and prepared tip top police counter-psychological oppression group, referred to locally as Detachment 88 (Densus 88) , first set up during the organization of president Megawati Sukarnoputri in 2003, just a brief time after the principal Bali bombings.

 Outfitted with US weaponry and attack vehicles, including Colt M4 attack rifles, Armalite AR-10 sharpshooter rifles and Remington 870 shotguns, the tip top unit has become one of the top enemy of dread units, in the event that not the top, on the planet, during Yudhoyono's watch. Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer this week adulated Indonesia for doing "an exceptional occupation in fighting psychological warfare". Despite the fact that there have been scores of captures and convictions since the main Bali bombings in 2002, with in excess of 220 suspects imprisoned for psychological oppressor exercises from that point forward, the fight against illegal intimidation in Indonesia is a long way from being done. Police said last year that Dujana had supplanted Noordin Mohamed Top, the Malaysian bomb-creator who supposedly provided self destruction planes and materials utilized in psychological militant assaults as Indonesia's generally needed outlaw.

Top's supposed associate, Malaysian expert bomb-creator Azahari canister Husin, was killed in a November 2005 shootout with Detachment 88 in the dread crew. In the event that claims against him are validated, Dujana unquestionably has a ton of a super overwhelming guilty conscience. He is accepted to play had a significant impact in the 2002 and 2005 Bali bombings and the Australian Embassy impact, as well as contributing to the stock of ammo and explosives to assailants associated with partisan savagery in Poso, Central Sulawesi area. He is likewise remembered to play had an influence in the 2003 impact at the JW Marriott Hotel in Jakarta. Australian Federal Police Commissioner Mick Keelty has cautioned that the work expected to kill psychological oppression in Indonesia is "not a run, but rather a long distance race". Indonesian National Police Chief General Sutanto has called for harder regulations to battle psychological warfare, and says current regulation obstructs examinations.

Hostile to illegal intimidation boss General Ansyaad Mbai adds that the security powers need position to make a precautionary move on those associated with plotting psychological oppressor strikes. Then again, revolutionary Muslim gatherings unequivocally go against harder enemy of fear regulations, saying they could disregard basic freedoms. The 2003 Anti-psychological oppression Law permits detainment of suspects for seven days for addressing. Assuming no proof is given by the police in that period, they should be delivered. Proposed corrections to the current regulation, which Mbai has depicted as the world's "mildest" regulation against illegal intimidation, would permit confinement for a further a half year for addressing and indictment. Knowledge reports would be satisfactory and allowable by all appearances proof for conceding a confinement request.

 This March, Detachment 88 (Densus 88) caught seven speculates remembered to be individuals from Dujana's organization during assaults in Central and East Java. Stores of weapons, explosives and synthetics were held onto that might have created a bomb greater than those utilized in Bali in October 2002. Freedoms campaigners charge that crackdowns by Detachment 88 have brought forth privileges infringement and case the majority of the captures made were illicit. However for Indonesia, with the world's greatest populace of Muslims, the solid arm strategies of neighbors Malaysia and Singapore, where suspects can be held endlessly without charge or preliminary, is an improbable choice.
