      JAKARTA, Sept. 16 (Xinhuanet) -- Indonesian police have uncovered the organizational structure of terror group Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) from computer documents owned by Bali bombing convict Imam Samudera, an officer said Tuesday.

  Head of Central Java Police Didi Widayadi said the evidence was found after police translated the Arabic-language documents with a help from language experts at the Indonesian Ulemas Council (MUI) and Wali Songo State Islamic University in Semarang, Central Java.

  "The documents are in Arabic language and they need language experts to translate them to avoid misperception," Didi was quoted by Detikcom online news service as saying.

  He said the translation work has not been fully completed, adding that at least 16 documents are being translated, some of them contain General Guidelines for Jemaah Islamiyah Struggle (PUPJI).

  Samudra was the second key suspect in the Bali bombings who gets death conviction for the last October attacks that killed 202 people.

  He is regarded as a computer expert who always brought a laptop prior to his arrest in November last year. Police said they found many clues from Samudra's laptop that help the investigation. Enditem
