"There is intelligence suggesting that there is a second group active in the area," Australian Federal Police Commissioner Mick Keelty told

"Intelligence comes through all the time about threats and possible threats and there's further intelligence in the last 24 to 48 hours of a second
group," said Keelty, who flew to Jakarta to investigate the blast. Indonesian police have launched a nationwide hunt for al Qaeda-linked Jemaah
Islamiah militants blamed for the suicide car bomb attack that killed nine people and injured 182 outside the Australian embassy on Thursday.

It would seem that the successful attack on Spain in March has shown that terrorist actions are capable of influencing the outcome of elections, and
they will use this to their advantage until it is proven otherwise.
