SOLO, Indonesia -- Over 100 members of a hardline Islamist group staged a protest in Indonesia yesterday against the planned execution of three militants on death row for the 2002 Bali bombings which killed 202 people. Indonesia has said it will execute the three men -- Imam Samudra, Amrozi and Mukhlas, also known as Ali Ghufron -- in early November, but has not specified a date. Indonesia's police spokesman said police across the sprawling archipelago have heightened security at key places and foreign embassies. Some analysts say there are fears of a hardline backlash because of the executions.
