Islamist prisoners kill five Indonesian police, take one hostage in jail clash


An inmate had also been killed at the jail in the Mobile Police Brigade (Brimob) headquarters in Depok, National police spokesman Muhammad Iqbal told reporters. In a message carried on its Amaq news agency, Islamic State claimed responsibility for the incident and said that 10 counter-terrorism officers had been killed. Iqbal denied that Islamic State was behind the attack or that it had been planned. Last week anti-terrorism police arrested three militants suspected of planning an attack on three other police buildings in West Java. Islamic State sympathizers have carried out a series of mostly low-level attacks in Indonesia over the past few years.
