Released cleric hits out at US
Militant cleric Abu Bakar Bashir lashed out at the US just hours after his release from jail today, as he headed to his home town to resume teaching at an Islamic school notorious for producing several deadly militants.
Bashir was given a hero’s welcome by around 150 supporters outside Jakarta’s Cipinang prison after serving a 26-month sentence for conspiracy in the 2002 Bali nightclub bombings that killed 202 people, mostly young foreign tourists.
