Three men were arrested outside Kuala Lumpur and eastern Pahang province for suspected links to a terrorist cell in Aceh that was administrated by radical cleric Abu Bakar Bashir. The three men, one Indonesian and two Malaysians, were identified as businessmen and were aiming to expand the cleric’s terror cell from Aceh into Malaysia. They were arrested under the Internal Security Act for jeopardizing national security and links to foreign militants.
