DENPASAR – Police in Bali say they have not found any indication that another terrorist bombing attack is imminent despite a travel advisory upgrade issued by the Australian government.
“We have yet to detect signs that Bali will again experience a bombing attack in the near future,” Bali Police spokesman, Sr. Comr. AS Reniban, told the Bali Post.
The Australian government last week issued a travel warning suggesting new terrorist attacks were possible in Jakarta and Bali.
Reniban said the Australian government’s suspicion could be true but police had so far not found any clues about an impending bombing attack in Bali.
“Neither the intelligence agents we have spread in the field, nor the many sources of information we have in the community, have so far reported indications of an imminent terrorist action in Bali,” he said.
He called on the public to remain calm and not to be upset or worried while keeping alert towards any unusual occurrence in their immediate surroundings. He also urged them to report any suspicious activity to the police.
