The name Mujahidin Kompak has become a hot topic of conversation. Police Insp. Gen. Sofjan Jacoeb mentioned it first. At a recent press conference, the Metro Jaya Police Chief announced that Ujang Haris, 17, and Wahyu Handoko, 20, had claimed membership of the Mujahidin Kompak. The two youths have been arrested as suspects in the bombing of the Western Indonesia Protestant Church (GPIB) Petra, in North Jakarta, Friday last week.
