“Islamist militants in Indonesia may be considering attacks on soft targets and Westerners when U.S. President Barack Obama visits this month, the head of counter-terrorism said on Thursday.

Obama is due to visit Indonesia, his childhood home, between June 15 and 17 after delaying a trip originally scheduled for March.

‘We haven’t got any detail of a specific plot to target Obama,’ Tito Karnavian, the head of Indonesia’s counter-terrorism unit, told foreign reporters.

But he added that the fact Obama’s visit would focus international attention on Indonesia could motivate militants to attempt an attack.”
