A man was arrested carrying three molotov bombs during a rally in front of the Parliament Building at Jalan Gatot Subroto on Tuesday. The man was taken by Jakarta Police for questioning.

Police confiscated some items from the man, including three energy drink bottles that were filled with kerosene and a box of matches.

It was unclear if the man was a part of an activist group rallying in front of the Parliament Building to demand the House of Representatives (DPR) to use its inquiry rights in the Bank Century bailout investigation.

Meanwhile, the demonstrations are still continuing outside Parliament, with the number of participants increasing. One of the initiators of the call for the House to use its inquiry right, Maruarar Sirait from the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) faction, came to greet those at the rally and to inform them about the developments in the plenary session.

The mass rally caused traffic delays on Jalan Gatot Subroto.
