Parliament Damaged by Minor Blast
From Times Wire Reports

No one claimed responsibility for the early morning blast, which caused minor damage to a ground-floor building at the parliamentary complex in central Jakarta. Last week, police confiscated a huge haul of explosives and detonators and arrested nine Islamic militants they said were planning terror attacks across the nation.
