JEMAAH Islamiyah (JI) bomb-maker, Taufik Abdul Halim alias Dany (pic), 39, returned to Malaysia last week after spending 12 years in an Indonesian prison for his involvement in a blast in a Jakarta mall where he ended up losing his right leg when the home-made explosives exploded early.
While in prison, one of Southeast Asia’s most wanted militant with a US$5mil (RM16.7mil) bounty on his head, his brother-in-law, Zulkifli Abdul Khir, also known as Marwan, managed to make contact with him, according to regional security officials.
