...analysts even agree on the composition of the bomb? Who actually built the bomb?none of those captured even pretended to have the expertise?and what happened to the other 700 kg of fertilizer that suspect Amrozi purchased? Most important of all, where are the true masterminds behind the Bali bombings: the bomb builder and his bosses, the conceptualizers and the funders of the operation? Regional intelligence sources confirm to TIME that Indonesian police have few clues as to the whereabouts of three critical suspects in the blasts, whose identities have not been officially revealed. These men make up what...
...involvement in the 1996 bombings of a U.S. military barracks in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, which killed 19 servicemen. Syafullah, who intelligence sources say entered Indonesia on a forged U.S. passport, would have provided the critical bombmaking and operational experience needed for a relatively sophisticated operation like the one in Bali, which many experts argue was beyond the capacity of Jemaah Islamiah (JI).

...police's secret most wanted list. (After testifying, the 39-year-old mechanic signed the 70-plus-page transcript with a flourish, bizarrely adding a grinning smiley face next to his name.) Originally, Amrozi told his captors, the group had planned to target only the U.S. consulate in Denpasar, Bali's capital. The newcomers were "as smart as Samudra," Amrozi emphasized, leading the police to believe they were of the same or higher rank. Amrozi was surprised to discover that Samudra wasn't the one calling the shots. Before these men arrived, Amrozi said in the interrogation, Samudra was talking...
