Jakarta: Indonesia will execute the Bali bombers on death row in early November, the spokesman of the Indonesian attorney general's office said on Friday.

The three men, Imam Samudra, Amrozi and Mukhlas, also known as Ali Ghufron, were sentenced to death in 2003 for their roles in the 2002 Bali nightclub bombings that killed 202 lives.

They are currently jailed in a maximum security prison island, Nusakambangan, where officials said the executions will take place.
