GUANTANAMO, 22, January, 2021, (TON): Three men suspected of being involved in the deadly bombings in Indonesia (2002 and 2003) will stand military trial at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba where they are being held.

"The charges include conspiracy, murder, attempted murder, intentionally causing serious bodily injury, terrorism, attacking civilians, attacking civilian objects, destruction of property, and accessory after the fact, all in violation of the law of war," the Pentagon said in a statement Thursday.

Multiple tourist hotspots were targeted, killing 202 people, mostly foreign tourists in the bombings. A year later, an attack on the J.W. Marriott Hotel in Jakarta killed 12.

The suspects spent more than 14 years in the U.S. military detention in Guantanamo Bay and were caught in Thailand in 2003. The three suspects were captured in Thailand in 2003. They have spent more than 14 years in the US military detention facillity in Guantanamo Bay.

Malaysian nationals and Encep Nurjaman, also known as Hambali alleged to be the leader of al-Qaida’s top affiliate in Southeast Asia is expected to aid the accused attackers in the incident.

The prison held around 780 detainees when there was a peak of Washington's "War on Terror". After a push by the Obama administration, where President Joe Biden served as vice president, only 40 detainees remained at Guantanamo.

It goes vague to comprehend the reason of delay in the charges announced over 14 years after their detention but military proceedings at the navy-run prison are often delayed due to logistical difficulties and legal challenges.
