In Indonesia, one of the top south-east Asian terrorists, Dulmatin has been killed in a police raid in Jakarta. President, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, confirmed this during a luncheon speech at Australia's parliament on Wednesday. Mr Yudhoyono is on a three-day visit to neighbouring Australia. Indonesian security forces earlier said they had killed three suspected militants in two raids on day, but they could not confirm that Dulmatin, alleged mastermind behind the 2002 Bali bombings, was among those killed. The raids were said to be linked to an ongoing operation against militants in Aceh province that has brought a number of arrests. The killing of Dulmatin will be greeted with particular enthusiasm in Australia as half of the almost 200 casualties in the Bali bombings were Australian. The Australian Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, had earlier praised Indonesia's efforts to dismantle terrorist networks. He was speaking in Canberra at a joint news conference with Mr. Yudhoyono.
