The South Jakarta District Court has declared ISIS-affiliated group Jamaah Ansharut Daulah, or JAD, a forbidden organization over its involvement in high-profile terrorist attacks in Indonesia.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“[We] declare JAD and other organizations affiliated with ISIS, Daesh, ISIL or IS forbidden organizations in Indonesia,” Judge Aris Bawono said on Tuesday (31\/07), as quoted by state-run news agency Antara.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The group was found guilty of having carried out acts of terror and ordered to pay a Rp 5 million ($347) fine.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Prosecutors indicted JAD on July 24 for its role in several terrorist attacks.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The group was represented by Zainal Anshori, head of JAD’s East Java chapter, who is considered the group’s second-in-command after Aman Abdurrahman.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Aman is currently on death row after his conviction on terrorism charges in June.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Three families, some with small children, carried out a series of suicide bombings in Surabaya, East Java, in May, killing more than 30 people. They were members of JAD.<\/p>\n
