Indonesian National Police spokesman Insp. Gen. Nanan Sukarna said he had yet to receive a report from his officers. "If there is a bomb threat, it is usually a hoax," he said.

The Best Western Asean Hotel in Medan got the threat from an unknown male caller on Sunday. "The caller said he will detonate the bomb in 30 minutes," S. Siregar, a security officer at the hotel said.

An anti-bomb squad from the local police was immediately dispatched to the hotel but they did not find any bomb after 30 minutes of searching.

Two explosions occurred at the Ritz Carlton and Marriott hotels respectively in Jakarta on Friday morning, killing 8 people and wounding more than 50 others.
