Mas Selamat Kastari
"Mas Selamat bin Kastari (born 23 January 1961), an Indonesian-born Singaporean, is Singapore's most-wanted fugitive who escaped from detention on 27 February 2008. The search for him has been described as the largest manhunt ever launched in Singapore.[2] Mas Selamat is also the subject of a "seeking information" alert[3] from the American FBI. He had previously escaped custody twice in Indonesia. He was allegedly the head of the Singapore branch of militant group Jemaah Islamiah (JI).
Singapore authorities have alleged that he planned to crash seven bomb-filled trucks at various locations around the city-state.[4] In January 2006, Mas Selamat was arrested by Indonesian anti-terror squads in Java and deported to Singapore. He was suspected of plotting to bomb Singapore Changi Airport in 2002,[5] and, according to the Singapore Police Force, he had initially planned to do so by crashing a plane into the airport.[4] However, Mas Selamat has never been formally charged with any terrorism-related offences[1]; instead, he was detained under the country's Internal Security Act, which allows indefinite detention without trial.
On 8 May 2009, Singapore's Channel NewsAsia reported a possible arrest of Mas Selamat by Malaysian authorities."

Bet everyone is curious what he has been doing for more than a year. Was the limping terror peng-kanging satay by the roadside before he was caught?
Either way, guess someone wouldnt be too happy about not having anymore toilet breaks.
