Three Indonesian Christians executed over Muslim killings: lawyer

Three Indonesian Christians who were on death row for inciting violence against Muslims in 2000 have been executed by firing squad, their lawyer told AFP.

"They have been executed. Their bodies are now undergoing an autopsy at the police hospital," lawyer Roy Rening said.

Rening said he was informed of the executions of Fabianus Tibo, Dominggus da Silva and Marianus Riwu by the prosecutors office in Palu, the capital of religiously-divided Central Sulawesi province, where the men were being held.
