| 2 dead in Sulawesi |
| 2005-08-05 |
| Two men have been shot dead in the Indonesian province of Central Sulawesi. Police say the killings in the town of Poso are believed to have been intended to stir religious tensions. In May, two bomb attacks killed 22 people at a market in the neighbouring coastal town of Tentena. Police say the Tentena bombings were the work of Islamic militants with possible links to Jemaah Islamiyah. Parts of Central Sulawesi, including Poso, have been the scene of intermittent fighting between Christians and Muslims since 2000. |
