MAKASSAR, South Sulawesi: The Pare-Pare Prosecutor's Office
handed over the case files of two bombing suspects to the
Makassar District Court on Tuesday.

Saifullah Amir, alias Imam Nawawi bin Amir, 24, and Muhammad

last December's bombings of a McDonald's outlet and car
dealership in Makassar, South Sulawesi.

Prosecutors also presented material evidence against Saifullah
and Muhammad, including a blue Vespa motorbike, two bank accounts
and a notebook. The suspects are being held at the South Sulawesi
Police Headquarters.

The spokesman for the Makassar District Court, Karel Tuppu,
said the court had so far received the case files of 14 of the 15
suspects in the bombings. Several of the suspects' trials have
already begun.

Two of the defendants have been charged with aiding the
bombers, and could each face 10 years in jail if found guilty.
