Five Poso Terror Defendants on Trial

TEMPO Interactive, Jakarta: The South Jakarta District Court brought to trial five defendants of terror cases in Poso, Central Sulawesi, yesterday (4/4).

The defendants are Arnoval Mencana (25), Bambang Tontou (23), Jonathan Tamsur (23), Dedy Doris Serpianus Tempali (25) and Roni Sepriyanto Rantedago Parusu (18).

The prosecuting attorney Totok Bambang charged that the five defendants murdered Arham Badaruddin and Wandi—two inhabitants of Masamba village, Poso—after the execution of death penalty convicts of Poso case: Fabianus Tibo, Dominggus da Silva and Marianus Riwu.

According to Totok, the incident started after the execution of Tibo and fellow convicts on September 23, 2006.

The defendants gathered because of their disappointment over Tibo's execution.

They heard reports that the execution of Tibo was not carried out in a proper manner.

They then had the idea to stop vehicles which were passing on the Trans-Sulawesi road, in Poleganyara Village.

The pick-up car driven by Arham Badaruddin and Wandi was stopped by the defendants, the two victims were tortured to death and then buried in Mount Tambaro.

"The defendants' action caused widespread fear among the people who use the Trans-Sulawesi road," said prosecuting attorney Totok, when reading out the charges.

The prosecuting attorney said he regarded that the defendants had violated the Anti-terrorism Decree as well as committing murder. SUKMA LOPPIES
