The World | IN BRIEF / INDONESIA

July 14, 2003|From Times Wire Reports

A small explosion that police said was caused by a bomb smashed windows and damaged a wall at Indonesia's Parliament building in Jakarta this morning, but there were no casualties.

No one claimed responsibility for the early morning blast, which caused minor damage to a ground-floor building at the parliamentary complex in central Jakarta. Last week, police confiscated a huge haul of explosives and detonators and arrested nine Islamic militants they said were planning terror attacks across the nation.
