Anti-terror police arrested 10 suspected militants and seized a large cache of high-powered bombs, foiling a major attack targeting foreigners in the Indonesian capital, police and media reports said on Thursday, July 3, 2008. Among those detained was a Singaporean who met several times with Osama bin Laden, a senior police officer told the Associated Press. There were no immediate details about the timing or the exact location of the planned strike.
