Indonesian police have detained seven individuals suspected of plotting a terrorist attack against Pope Francis during his visit to Jakarta, part of a 12-day Asia-Pacific tour. The arrests occurred on September 2 and 3 in various regions, including Jakarta, West Sumatra, and Bangka Belitung Islands, following tips from concerned citizens. Searches revealed bows, arrows, a drone, and ISIS leaflets, with some detainees having pledged allegiance to ISIS. The suspects had issued threats via social media, including a plan to bomb the Pope and set fire to locations. The plot was reportedly motivated by anger over Pope Francis' visit to Jakarta's Istiqlal Mosque and the suspension of the Islamic call to prayer during his visit. Security measures were heightened to ensure the safety of the Pope and the public during his engagements.
