Hambali (Riduan Isamuddin),Indonesian terror suspect, was captured in Thailand in August in a joint operation between the CIA and the Thai police. Hambali, Asia's most-wanted terrorist, served as the operations chief of Jemaah Islamiyah, which has ties to al-Qaeda. Officials believe Hambali organized the 2002 bombing of a Bali nightclub and the attack on the J. W. Marriott hotel in Jakarta, and was involved in the bombing of the U.S.S. Cole and the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Information Please® Database, © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.
