Amnesty criticises Indonesia death penalty ruling

The Indonesians' petitions were also denied in their entirety.

Amnesty called on Indonesia to abolish the death penalty and said it was particularly concerned about the fate of three men convicted of involvement in the 2002 Bali bombings who face the death penalty.

Imam Samudra and brothers Amrozi and Ali Ghufron have reportedly said that they will not seek presidential clemency, with Samudra quoted as saying: "A pardon is a democratic law that we oppose."
