**Indonesian police have arrested a woman believed to be the wife of the man who allegedly masterminded last week’s attacks on two hotels in Jakarta.**The woman, identified as Ariana Rahma, was detained during a raid on an Islamic school in central Java.
Ms Ariana is reported to be married to Noordin Mohammed Top, a wanted militant.
Police earlier released facial images of the two men suspected of carrying out the bomb attacks.
The police sketches of the alleged bombers were based on two heads found in the wreckage at the JW Marriott and Ritz-Carlton hotels.
The attacks killed nine people and injured scores of others.
It is unclear what charges Ms Ariana might be facing, but in recent raids in Cilacap police say they found bomb-making material at an Islamic boarding school and explosives buried in the garden of a house of Mr Noordin’s father-in-law.
Mr Noordin is wanted for plotting the bombings in Bali in 2002 and 2005, which killed 202 people, and other attacks in Indonesia.
The police say they are looking into similarities between the Bali attacks and the recent bombing in Jakarta.
Mr Noordin was said to be a key financier for the militant Islamic group Jemaah Islamiah, but is now thought to have set up his own splinter group.
Foreign dead
The man whose remains were found in the Ritz-Carlton is dark-skinned with short dark hair. The police said he was aged between 20 and 40.
The second man, found at the Marriott, was lighter skinned and aged just 16 or 17.
