Jakarta, Nov. 10 (Xinhuanet) -- Fingerprint examinations and DNA test indicate that one of the dead victims in a police raid in East Java on Wednesday was fugitive bomb maker Azahari bin Husin, Indonesian Police Chief Sutanto said on Thursday.

    "The fingerprint examinations and DNA test have assured that one of the dead victims was Azahari, the most sought terrorist leader in Indonesia over the last three years," official news agency Antara quoted Sutanto as saying in Malang, East Java.

    He said that Azhari's fingerprint, which was handed over by Malaysian police to their Indonesian counterpart, had been compared with the fingerprint of one of the dead.

    The Malaysian police recorded Azhari's fingerprint in 1969, 1998 and in the 2000s.

    Top fugitive bomb maker Azahari of Malaysian nationality, who was blamed for three major terror attacks in the country in the past three years, got killed in a house believed to be his hideout in the hilly area of Batu in the East Java town of Malang on Wednesday. Enditem
