Bali Bombing Suspect Sentenced to Death

BALI, Indonesia –– In the first verdict on last year's Bali bombings, an Indonesian court on Thursday convicted and sentenced to death Amrozi bin Nurhasyim, a key player in the attack that killed 202 people.

Amrozi was found guilty of planning and helping execute the bombings.

"The accused is found guilty in a legal and convincing manner of carrying out an act of terrorism," said judge I Made Karna.

After the verdict was read, Amrozi took off his Islamic skull cap, raised his arms and gave his lawyers the thumbs-up sign. Hundreds of people, including survivors of the bombings, cheered when the judge read the sentence.

The verdict came two days after another bomb exploded at the Marriott Hotel in Jakarta, killing at least 10 people and wounding nearly 150. Both attacks have been linked with Jemaah Islamiyah, a shadowy al Qaeda-linked terrorist group believed to be operating in Southeast Asia.
