Execution of Bali Bombers in Indonesia

The deadliest terrorist attack in the history of Indonesia occurred in 2002 in one of its Island called Bali. Indonesia at last executed the responsible terrorists for this who claimed lives of more than 200 people.

It was in 12 Oct 2002 when this worst attack took place. This attack claimed lives of 202 people. Most of the deceased were foreign nationals. Around 164 foreigners died in this attack. Also there were 209 people injured.

The responsible for this attack were three people of Jemaah Islamiyah group. These three militants were executed by Indonesian Government.

However many people turned out to welcome these bodies, calling them Martyrs. They were the responsible for the death of so many innocent people and still they are called as Martyrs. It is this blind encouragement from people that enhances these terrorists to do all sorts of bloody acts.

As the response from the supporters of these three terrorists Indonesia fears risk of revenge attacks. Though the supporters are limited to a minority of 235 million citizens of Indonesia, there are high possibilities of someone turning out to embark revenge attacks.
