  • 28 March 1981: Garuda Indonesia Flight 206, a DC-9 aircraft on a domestic flight, was hijacked. Five Komando Jihad extremists hijacked the DC-9 "Woyla"—en route from Palembang to Medan—and ordered the aircraft crew to fly to Colombo, Sri Lanka. Due to a lack of fuel, the aircraft refueled at Penang, Malaysia and at Don Muang, Thailand. The hijackers demanded US$1.5 million, the release of 80 Komando Jihad members imprisoned in Indonesia, and an aircraft to transport them to an unspecified destination. The hostage rescue operation was carried out by the Indonesian Army's Kopassus. Casualties included the deaths of the pilot, one Kopassus commando, and three hijackers. The two other hijackers were killed by Kopassus commandos on the plane returning to Jakarta. All hostages were released unharmed.[4]
  • 4 October 1984: Bomb attack in Bank Central Asia in Jalan Pecenongan, West Jakarta in retaliation for the Tanjung Priok massacre earlier that year.

  • 16 March 1985: Bomb attack in a Pemudi Express Bus in Banyuwangi, East Java. Abdulkadir Al Hasby was arrested.
