Malaysians Mohammed Farik bin Amin and Mohammed Nazir bin Lep pleaded guilty in January before a U.S. military commission to charges of murder, conspiracy and other offenses as lieutenants of the man known as Hambali, the leader of Jemaah Islamiya, the al-Qaeda affiliate in Southeast Asia blamed for a number of deadly bombing attacks in the region in the early 2000s.
