 The trials begin in Bali today of four men accused of being part of a conspiracy behind three suicide attacks on restaurants last October. Twenty-six people, including four Australians, died in the blasts. Muhamad Cholily, Abdul Aziz, Dwi Widiyarto and Anif Solchanudin will face court in Denpasar accused of renting safe houses and assisting bomb-makers. All four have been linked to the South-East Asian terrorist network Jemaah Islamiah. The men say they were recruited and trained by JI leaders, Noordin Mohammed Top and Dr Husin Azahari. Top remains at large on the island of Java where Indonesian police, with the assistance of Australian Federal Police, have arrested many of his associates in recent weeks. |
