Bomb found in Ambon
AMBON, Maluku (Antara): A police bomb squad cordoned off an area in front of a
shop near the provincial public works office on Monday morning to defuse a bomb
planted by an unidentified man.
The bomb squad isolated the area in front of the Meter shop on Jl. DI Panjaitan to
protect the public from any unexpected eventuality as experts proceeded to defuse
the device.
Ambon and many other parts of Maluku province was rocked by a bloody sectarian
conflict that lasted from January 1999 to 2002.
In the past six months however, the eastern Indonesian province has been calm, with
the reconciliation process between the Muslim and Christian communities working
well.
