Naim has often been associated with
Mujahidin Indonesia Timur (MIT) leader
Abu Wardah, who has pledged allegiance to IS. He has been known to the authorities since at least 2010 during terrorism investigations in
Bekasi. At that time the
Anti-terror Detachment 88 arrested a
Uyghur foreigner by the name of Alli. The squad searched Alli's residence in the Green Boulevard residential area at Taman Harapan Indah, Bekasi, at around 16:30 pm, December 23, 2010, but they did not find Alli's passport, instead they found a vest-mounted suicide bomb and 533 pieces of 7.62 cm
rifle bullets and 31 pieces of 9 mm bullets . He is thought to be behind the funding of foreign nationals as well as pouring some funds to Indonesia to assemble bombs. He was sentenced to two and half years in prison by the State Court of
Surakarta with verdict of violating the Emergency Law No. 12 of 1951 on the possession of firearms and explosives. From around October to November 2015, a
Facebook account, named "Muhammad Bahrunnaim Anggih Tamtomo" actively distributed tutorials on making bombs and homemade firearms. The page address was once linked to another radical's website, which listed more comprehensive bomb-making. In one of his posts, Bahrun told of his struggle to Syria. He took his wife and two children. At that time, his young wife became pregnant. ==Death==
