Intelligence expert Wawan Purwanto says extremist groups are using new methods to recruit new members.
“They brainwash new recruits, targeting intellectuals or well-educated people,” he said on Saturday as quoted by tribunnews.com.<>
Previously, National Police spokesperson Sr. Comr. Boy Rafli Amar confirmed that about half of the 19 suspects arrested for their alleged role in a spate of mail bomb attacks, and a thwarted bomb attack on a church in Serpong, had bachelor's degrees and were from wealthy families.
He said the organizations brainwashed their new recruits to carry out terrorist attacks.
He said another method was to kidnap people and demand ransom money from their families, which they would then use to fund their terror activities. (jp/dar)
