Post-Paris Threat
One of the suspected Paris terrorists, Frederic C. Jean Savi, who is now wanted by the French authorities, may have resided in Bandung for six months in 2005. Savi was known to have been involved in militant activities in Indonesia. He is also suspected of being the brains behind the bomb explosion in front of the Indonesian embassy in France on March 21, 2012.
Before Bandung, Savi, who was known as 'Tall Ali' while he was in Indonesia, had visited the Darusy Syahadah Pesantren (Islamic boarding school) in Boyolali, Central Java. It is believed that he may have lived in Java for about a total of three years. In Bandung, he studied with the Cibiru jihadi group, to whom he donated his Mitsubishi Galant automobile, to be used as a car bomb.
