Security forces continued to comb Singapore on Saturday for a suspected terrorist leader after he escaped last week from a high security prison. Authorities in neighboring Indonesia, meanwhile, bolstered security in case Mas Selamat Kastari, 47, attempted to reach the nearby archipelago. Interpol also issued a worldwide security alert Friday for the suspected commander of al-Qaida-linked Jemaah Islamiyah's Singapore arm.(AP Photo/Wong Maye-E)
