TANGERANG, Indonesia, Rabi'I 22, 1438, Dec 21, 2016, SPA -- Indonesian police said three suspected militants who were planning a holiday season suicide bombing were killed in a raid Wednesday on the outskirts of Jakarta in the second imminent attack to be foiled in less than two weeks, AP reported. A residential neighborhood was evacuated after several bombs were found in a house used by the men. Police said they had defused three bombs. The men planned to stage their attack on New Year's Eve, Jakarta police chief Mochamad Iriawan said in a television interview. They were to stab police officers to attract a crowd and then detonate bombs, he said. The three men were killed in a gun battle with the police's anti-terror squad after refusing an appeal from authorities to surrender and come out of the house in a leafy residential compound in Tangerang, a Jakarta satellite city. National Police spokesman Rikwanto said the men threw explosives and fired guns at police. A fourth man, who was arrested in the neighborhood, had led police to the house used by the militants. --SPA 12:03 LOCAL TIME 09:03 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w295264
