Security was increased throughout Indonesia

Security was increased throughout Indonesia on 31 October 2008 due to the slated executions of the 2002 Bali bombers on 1 November. Supporters of the bombers have stated that they will seek reprisals for the executions and have been rumoured to be making their way to Denpasar (Bali) to show their solidarity. As part of the heightened security measures, more than 1,000 police officers have been deployed to Cilacap, the city closest to the Nusakambangan island prison.
