Low explosive bomb exploded near the house of a Golkar Party politician in Jayapura, Papua early Thursday, damaging windows of a garage near the location.
“The bomb did not contain dangerous materials, but pieces of metal in the explosion came from the metal used to encase the explosive device,” said chief of Papua’s Police Brigade Corps Sr. Corm. Mathius Fachiri in Jayapura on Thursday.
The incident occurred at 2 a.m. on Thursday near the house of acting secretary to Golkar Party’s Papua chapter Marthinus Werimon. There was no report on any casualties resulting from the incident, but its strong explosion had shocked people living in the nearby areas.
Marthen Tenu, a security officer, who guards Marthinus's neighbor's house, said he saw two men ride away on motorcycles after placing a package near Marthinus’s house, seconds before the explosion.
“The motorcyclists sped up their vehicles after the explosion,” said Tenu, who stood roughly 50 meters from Marthinus's house.
Meanwhile, Marthinus linked the explosion to the simultaneous regional elections, saying he had received various terror threats since the Golkar Party officially announced its support of a mayoral pair in Jayapura.
The Golkar Party in Papua had split prior to the elections because its politicians supported two different pairs of Jayapura mayoral candidates: Abisai Rollo-Dipo Wibowo and Benhur Tommy Mano-Rustan Saru. The Golkar chapter officially supported Benhur-Rustan.
Papua Police chief Insp. Gen. Paulus Waterpauw rejected the idea that the explosion was connected to the regional elections. “We have not drawn any conclusions. We must focus on arresting the perpetrators,” he added.
