Indonesia seizes fertilizer ship from Malaysia in Bali, suspecting bomb plot


DENPASAR: Indonesian authorities on the resort island of Bali on Thursday detained a ship from Malaysia carrying around 30 tonnes of fertilizer which police believe may have been intended for making bombs. Indonesia's most-wanted man, a militant called Santoso, was killed by security forces in Sulawesi earlier this year. "At the moment the crew are being intensively examined on explosive material ammonium nitrate that was carried, shipped from Malaysia," Bali customs official Thomas Aquino said. Indonesia saw its first militant attack in several years in January in which four people were killed. Last month, authorities tightened security in Bali after reports of a suspected militant plot on the island.
