Indonesian police sources say they found Azahari's hideout after identifying the three suicide bombers who killed 20 people in Bali on Oct. 1. A massive surveillance operation ensued, trailing scores of suspects with links to the dead bombers. One of those suspects, a 27-year-old Indonesian who calls himself Yayha Antoni, emerged from the Batu house the day before Azahari died. Having tapped his mobile phone, police believed he was going to meet Azahari's chief accomplice, fellow Malaysian Noordin Mohamad Top. Yayha apparently sensed he was being tailed and tried to detonate his vest but was arrested...

For civilians, especially the Shi'ite minority, the city became...

Castro claimed to know nothing of Vesco's finances or movements. He charged that the CIA had spread the story about Vesco's hideout, declaring that "they may want to gouge out his eyes, strangle him, make him into ground meat." The Cuban President was especially piqued because the renewed interest in Vesco stole attention from Castro's call for Latin American countries to repudiate their collective foreign debt, which totals some $360 billion.
