Suspects in the murder of a senior Indonesian judge have accused former president Suharto's fugitive youngest son of masterminding the killing, police said today.
Police have linked the millionaire fugitive Mr Hutomo Mandala Putra, or Tommy Suharto, to a spate of fatal bombings in the country and the murder two weeks ago of the chief judge who last year sentenced him to 18 months in jail for corruption.
"The suspects said that it was Tommy who gave the order. They said he gave them 100 million rupiah and firearms to carry it out," Jakarta police spokesman Mr Anton Bahrul Alam said.
Two motorcycle gunmen shot Supreme Court judge Mr Syaifuddin Kartasasmita in the capital Jakarta last month.
Police said they had arrested two men over the killing today, hours after finding explosives and documents linking the former presdent's son to the bombings that have rocked the troubled nation for months.
