Bali trial pits brother against brother

Brother testified against brother in the Bali bombings trial in Denpasar yesterday.

Ali Imron, 33, told the court that his older brother, Amrozi bin Nurhasyim, 40, received instructions for his role in the October 2002 attacks at a planning meeting in Central Java in August.

"The aim was to do Jihad in Bali", Imron told the court as Amrozi watched.

During Imron's testimony, the court was told repeatedly that a handful of accomplices had gathered with the aim of attacking the US and its allies.
