Analyst explains reasons to doubt Noordin's death claim

An intelligent observer Dinno Cressbon said Sunday most wanted terror suspect Noordin M. Top would have been unlikely to choose Beji hamlet, Temanggung, Central Java as a hideout.

Police believed they had killed Noordin in a raid in Temanggung from Friday to Saturday.
