Bali bombers plan final appeal, execution would be
illegal: lawyer
JAKARTA, July 4 (AP) - Three militants awaiting
execution over the 2002 Bali bombings will file a
final appeal, their lawyer said Tuesday, and he
claimed that killing the men before the petition is
heard would be against the law.
Prosecutors have been speeding up efforts to execute
the three men, who have each admitted to helping plan
and carry out the 2002 blasts, which killed 202
people, most of them foreign tourists.
They and their families have said they will not seek
clemency from the president, but lawyer Wirawan Adnan
said he planned to file a final appeal known as a
judicial review to the Supreme Court later this month.
"The prosecutors can execute them whenever they want,
but it will be against the law since the three still
have the right to appeal," he told The Associated
Press.
