Confessed Bali bomber Ali Imron has told an Indonesian court the main blasts were detonated using cell phones in an operation that went off "as scripted". Imron's evidence is the most detailed testimony yet on the execution of the attacks. Imron, who has not yet gone on trial, was testifying in the trial of his elder brother Ali Ghufron, alias Mukhlas. Imron, who has acknowledged his involvement in the attack, drew bursts of laughter from Mukhlas when he admitted to a mix of happiness and regret over the bombings. Prosecutors allege Mukhlas, 43, was in charge of the Bali operation. He faces death if convicted on charges of plotting, organising and carrying out terrorist crimes.

Jakarta has alleged Mukhlas is the operations chief of Jemaah Islamiah (JI). |
