JAKARTA - The National Police Headquarters has not been able to confirm the route of the escape route for dozens of suspected terrorists who were arrested in East Java. Because it is still being investigated by the Densus 88 Anti-terror.

"We will get on that later, the important thing is that they have prepared everything. They have planned everything", said Head of Public Information Bureau (Karo Penmas), Police Public Relations Division, General Rusdi Hartono, to reporters, Tuesday, March 2.

Rusdi said that the most important thing was that the suspected terrorists had already been prosecuted. On the other hand, the terror action plan has not yet been carried out but it has already been prepared.

"After taking action, they had prepared their escape route", he said.

"That is just a plan. Before taking action, the Densus has carried out preventive activities so that the action does not occur", he continued.

Previously, it was reported that a terrorist group arrested in East Java had designed an escape route after carrying out an act of terrorism. By using that route, it is hoped that no one will get caught.

"They have also prepared a storage area for weapons and have also prepared an escape area after carrying out terrorist activities", said Rusdi.

This group has also planned acts of amaliah. But regarding the target and timing of this group's plan, Rusdi said it could not be ascertained because it was still in the deep investigation stage.

"Later, the Densus will study it again because, from the temporary information that was extracted from this group, they had planned the amaliah. The form and target, this is still in an investigation from the Densus", he said.
