Lawyers seek clarification on execution date of Bali bombers
The Jakarta Post | Sat, 11/01/2008 2:11 PM | National
A team of lawyers representing three terrorists currently waiting for death penalty execution was spotted at a port in Cilacap, Central Java, on Saturday morning heading for a state penitentiary in Nusakambangan island.Team member Hasyim Abdullah told reporters at the port that they were planning to seek confirmation whether their clients had received a dossier on their death penalty. According to an Indonesian law, a notification letter on the exact date of a death penalty should be given to the convicted three days prior to the execution date.
Earlier on Thursday, deputy attorney general for general crimes Abdul Hakim Ritonga said the death penalty could be carried out as early as Saturday and Nov. 20 at the latest. On the same day, another member of the team of lawyers claimed that the execution would be carried out on Nov. 7.
Hasyim said the prosecutors seemed serious with their execution plan as seen from the increase in security and activity in the island.
“Judging from the condition, it seems that they are serious. But we don’t want to speculate,” he said as quoted by tempointeraktif.com.
Hasyim added that the family members of the convicted terrorists would pay their last visit before the execution. (and)

Islam as like many other religion is a religion of peace. No religion preach violence, its human that preach violence and this small group who preaches violence to kill, to maim cannot advertise themselves, sacrifice themselves in the name of their religion. Being a non-muslim myself, i have to honestly admit my best friend in this world is a Muslim and i have many Muslim friends and not one preach violence, hatred whatsoever. Respect all religions is the way to live in harmony. Regrettably, these 3 terrorists while not remorseful of their kill and awaiting their execution is still hopeful that more turmoils would ensue after their death. Never in the world had one seen such hatred from a soon to be executed convicts. Even their executioners are not immune to their prophecy of hatred, if that is the case they should die a slow death since they are a coward to pain while not mentioning the amount of pain they had inflicted on local Indonesians as well as foreigners. Ask them why they are not that stupid to bomb their own home.....
