The perpetrators of the 2004 bombing at the Australian embassy in the Indonesian capital felt no remorse for the 10 innocent people who died in the attack, a suspect in the blast told a Jakarta court on Tuesday.

Abdul Hassan said that those who died – all of whom were Indonesians – did so because of "Allah's will". The dead were either passers-by, people queuing up to enter the heavily fortified mission or security guards. "When we talked about the bombing afterwards, we never felt any remorse," Hassan told the South Jakarta District Court.

Hassan, who is on trial for conspiring in the attack, made the comments during his appearance as a prosecution witness in the trial of co-accused Iwan Darmawan, as known as Rois.

Police have arrested six suspects in the attack, which was blamed on Jemaah Islamiah, the regional terror group officials say received funding from al-Qaeda. Three are already facing trial.

Several others suspects in the attack, including Malaysian militants Azahari bin Husin and Noordin Mohamed Top, remain on the run somewhere in world's most populous Muslim nation.

Jemaah Islamiah is also blamed in the August 5, 2003 Marriott hotel bombing that killed 12 and the 2002 Bali bombings that killed 202 people, most of them foreign tourists.
