The Brimob officer evacuated to Bali from Bima has reportedly stabilized after an operation.
Sanglah Hospital’s Medical and Nursing Director I Nengah Kuning says the officer had surgery in the Denpasar hospital on Tuesday morning at 8:30 am.
“The surgery was approximately 1.5 hours,” Kuning said, as quoted by Tribun Bali. Kuning did not elaborate much further on the nature and extent of Bharada Efendi’s inuries, but he did say that he no longer needed a ventilator.
Efendi was wounded in Bima after exchanging gunfire with terrorists during a raid led by Densus 88, the Indonesian special forces anti-terror squad.
The raid was targeting a terrorist, allegedly linked to the Poso-based MIT, on police’s wanted list, identified as Fajar alias Chan alias Muhammad Fuad.
