Indonesia is considering the repatriation of Riduan Isamuddin, a notorious Guantanamo Bay detainee accused of orchestrating the 2002 Bali bombings. Known as Hambali, he was the head of Jemaah Islamiyah and is tied to various deadly terrorist activities. Despite serious allegations, the Indonesian government, recognizing him as a citizen, aims to handle the situation delicately, given the statute of limitations on his cases has lapsed. This issue comes amid broader efforts to manage former terrorists and curb ongoing radicalism within the region.
Hambali is an Indonesian citizen, and despite his alleged terror activities, the government feels an obligation to integrate him back into society albeit with caution.
Senior minister Yusril Ihza Mahendra emphasized the sensitive nature of repatriating a national like Hambali, highlighting the need for careful governmental action.
