Indonesian police say the main suspect in last month's bombing at a nightclub on Bali Island, who was recently arrested, apparently traveled to Afghanistan, raising suspicions that he may have met with terrorists based in Afghanistan or received training from them. On Saturday, Indonesian police stated they are trying to understand why a 40-year-old mechanic, referred to only as Amrouzi, who has confessed to playing a role in the bombings, visited Afghanistan, Thailand, and Malaysia. Indonesian authorities have also continued their search for other suspects in the homes of the Tangolun village for a second day. Amrouzi was arrested on Tuesday, and police consider his arrest a major breakthrough in the investigation related to the October 12 attacks in Bali, which resulted in the deaths of at least 180 people, most of whom were foreign nationals.
