Associated Press

   JAKARTA, INDONESIA - Indonesian police said Monday that they have
   arrested 43 suspected militants believed to have links to last week's
   suicide attack at a busy police station in the country's third-largest
   city.

   National police spokesman Dedi Prasetyo said those arrested are
   suspected members of a local affiliate of the Islamic State group known
   as the Jama'ah Anshorut Daulah. He said police seized explosives, guns,
   knives, arrows and jihadi documents from the suspects.

   The arrests were made in seven provinces and include the group's
   leader, Prasetyo said at a news conference in the capital, Jakarta.

   The Nov. 13 suicide bombing involving a lone attacker in Medan wounded
   six people.
