An Indonesian court on Wednesday sentenced Islamic militant Imam Samudra to death for masterminding the Bali bombings which killed 202 people in October, 2002.
"Imam Samudra has been clearly proven to have planned a terrorist act, and we hand down the sentence of death," Judge Wayan Sugawa said.
Samudra pumped his fist into the air as he was led out by police. "Go to hell, you infidels" and "Bush, Sharon," he
yelled in English.
Samudra, 33, an Afghan-trained fighter has said he wants to die as a martyr. But during the trial he denied the charges that he had commanded the group of militants who carried out the October 12 attack.
