Security Concerns In Indonesia
2:27 pm PST, 20 December 2004

Fresh security concerns have swept the Indonesian capital of Jakarta after a hand grenade was found hidden in a tin can beside the Hilton Hotel today.

The discovery came just days after Australia warned of a possible terror attack on the hotel complex.

The grenade, which was taken away by bomb squad officers, was found by a cleaner as he swept around the heavily-guarded hotel grounds.

A hotel spokesperson says the grenade was inside a tin alongside the hotel fence.

It was taken away by bomb squad officers.
