JAKARTA (Reuters) - Indonesia's TVOne showed closed circuit television footage on Friday of a man suspected of detonating a bomb that went off in the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Jakarta, one of two near-simultaneous bomb attacks.

The CCTV footage showed a man wearing a baseball cap and pulling a small wheelie-bag behind him as he entered the hotel lobby.

Two bomb blasts, one at the JW Marriott, the other at the Ritz-Carlton in Jakarta's main business district, killed 8 people and injured more than 50, including foreigners and Indonesians.
