2005-09-23 |
![]() Judge Sucahyo Padmo said Bahri was guilty of "providing assistance" to fugitive Malaysians Azahari bin Husin and Noordin Mohamed Top by buying the chemicals used to make the bomb and finding the fugitives a rented room before the attack. Police have accused Azahari and Noordin of masterminding the Sept. 9, 2004 attack, which killed 10 people and wounded about 200. Police and prosecutors have said the perpetrators carried out the blast to punish Australia for its involvement in the Iraq war. All of the dead were Indonesians, most of them Muslims, walking past the mission when the bomb exploded. |
