| A Malaysian man accused of helping terror operations of the al Qaeda-linked Jemaah Islamiah (JI) in Indonesia was sentenced on Thursday to three years in jail. The South Jakarta court said in its verdict that Syamsul Bahri attended JI meetings at which terror plots were discussed. "(Bahri) helped perpetrators of terror crimes and hid information on those offences ... and was a foreigner who illegally stayed in Indonesia," said judge Aryansyah Dali. Prosecutors had said Bahri was a member of Jemaah Islamiah and had surveyed targets for the group's suspected master bomb-maker Azahari, who is also a Malaysian and is on the run. |
