" In the mosque located in Menteng, Farihin saw Bahrun Naim and Bahrumsyah. "They also have baiat here," he told Tirto on Monday.
Bahrun Naim's full name is Muhammad Bahrun Naim Anggi Tamtomo. He bears two affectionate calls: Abu Rayyan and Abu Aishah. Bahrun is one of ISIS supporters in Indonesia. While Bahrumsyah is an ISIS combatant from Indonesia, who is affiliated with the East Indonesia Mujahidin Council led by Santoso.
Bahrumsyah is even mentioned as the leader of ISIS Southeast Asia. He leads the group of Katibah Nusantara, the ISIS splinter group deliberately created to deal with the ISIS movement in Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. Santoso was killed by a joint operation of the Indonesian security forces on July 18, 2016. The two masterminds of a series of terror in Indonesia are reportedly killed in Syria. Bahrun was allegedly killed in November 2017, although not yet confirmed 100 percent. Bahrumsyah alias Abu Muhammad al Indonesi was killed in April 2018.
"It is not clear if Khatibah Nusantara is still there, although its key figure, Abu Walid, may still be alive," said Sidney Jones, terrorism researcher and Director of the Institute for Policy Analysis of Conflict (IPAC).
Farihin said he was "the one who drove" the men from Al Fataa Mosque. He also said Afghan alumni, who are members of the Afghan Alumni Communication Forum of Indonesia, gathered at a place near the mosque every Friday night. According to Farihin, the ISIS sympathizers gathered before the Islamic Defense Action I, a series of street political movements on the Jakarta Pilkada stage that successfully imprisoned Basuki 'Ahok' Tjahaja Purnama's governor petahana. The action was held on 4 November 2016.
The ISIS sympathizers are planning to "ride" the action of the National Movement of Fatwa Guards of the Indonesian Ulema Council, by making the situation hot when the mass is scheduled towards the House of Representatives in Senayan, Farihin said. However, because they failed, they held a small meeting to commit a robbery in North Jakarta, led by Abu Nusaibah. In September 2017, Abu Nusaibah was charged with a 10-year sentence by the Jakarta District Court.
In waves, from various factions, these groups proclaim a loyal promise of supporting ISIS.
On July 6, 2014, Bahrumsyah gathered people at Masjid Fathullah State Islamic University Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta. The declaration of support was not known in August and became the media spotlight. Afterwards, Bahrumsyah went to Syria.
Later, he appeared through videos and invited ISIS supporters to join jihad; a recent propaganda in ISIS State's global terror machine. In Sukoharjo, Central Java, a group of people named the Daulah Islamiyah Forum also pledged to ISIS.
The declaration was attended by Afif Abdul Majid and Syaifuddin Umar alias Abu Fida, two names that were later dragged to the prison chair because of contact with the terror network in Indonesia. Afif Abdul Majid is known as the daily administrator of Jamaah Anshorut Tauhid formed by Abu Bakar Ba'asyir.
While Abu Fida is a former member of Jamaah Islamiyah Lamongan, who then migrated to Jamaah Anshorut Tauhid. In Bima, West Nusa Tenggara, and Malang.
On July 20, 2014, a group called Ansharul Khilafah also bowed to Abu Bakar al-Baghdadi. The best known figure in this group is Salim Mubarok At-tamimi alias Abu Jandal Al Yemeni Al Indonesi. He was reportedly killed in the fighting in Mosul, Iraq.
The support for ISIS was followed by a wave of Indonesians traveling to Syria, as did the leaders and followers of the groups. In addition to creating terror acts in Indonesia, they also set up a funding system for people who want to migrate to Syria. One such donor institution is called Azzam Dakwa Center (ADC), formed by Jamaah Ansharut Daulah. Despite claiming to be a da'wah agency, including a fundraiser for Syrians, it was later arrested by Densus 88 Antiteror one by one because they were involved in a bomb attack plan at the State Palace.
The gait of this institution later dimmed. In addition, according to Sidney Jones, emerging individual donors. He mentioned one name: Kuswandono from Yogyakarta. "He went himself to Syria, but what did he do before he left? He's love an ATM card to friends here who support ISIS. So they can use it for others who want to emigrate, "said Jones.
Other names of the funders are Muhammad Basri aka Abu Saif, and Robby Risa Putra aka Abu Wahab. Basri is known as the leader of Pondok Pesantren Tanfidzul Al-Quran in Makassar, South Sulawesi. While Robby is a sympathizer ISIS who funded the departure of six citizens to go to Syria. In February 2016, a panel of West Jakarta District Court judges sentenced the two guilty to such involvement.
"There are often many special donors and not foundations," said Jones.
