Abdul Rohim and Agus Purwanto, two Jemaah Islamiyah operatives arrested in Malaysia in January and recently extradited to Indonesia, “were planning to go to Syria to build a relationship with foreign radical groups” according to Indonesian police. Police also believe their arrest may provide clues that can lead to the arrest of Noordin Mohammad Top.
