Thousands of people including some hardliners gathered for the funerals of three Indonesians executed on Sunday for the 2002 Bali bombing.

The US embassy in Indonesia received bomb threats on Tuesday as tensions rose ahead of the execution of three convicted over the Bali bombings.

Relatives of two of the militants facing imminent execution for the Bali bombings said on Sunday they will visit the brothers on Monday.

The family of two militants awaiting execution for the Bali bombings that killed 202 people says paradise awaits them after the firing squads.

Indonesia’s ability to keep a lid on militant Islam is likely to be put to the test soon with the long-awaited execution of the Bali bombers.
