The surging crowd eventually broke down gates at the Kerobokan prison, although order was quickly restored. The three had earlier been transferred [JURIST report; Jakarta Post report] from the facility, although Bali's justice chief said the transfer was unrelated to the protest. Protesters have been gathering at the jail [JURIST report] since last week, urging that the convicted bombers be put to death immediately.
