JAKARTA, Sept 7, 2007 (AFP) - Indonesia's Supreme Court rejected an appeal from one of the three Islamic militants on death row for the 2002 Bali bombings, reports said Friday.

Lawyers for the three have said their appeal would be based on another court ruling that anti-terror laws introduced after the bombings, which were used to convict the three, could not be applied retroactively.

Supreme Court spokesman Djoko Sarwoko told state news agency Antara the appeal panel had rejected that ruling as a base for Amrozi's appeal.

"The appeal panel decided that the constitutional court's decision cannot be accepted as basis (for the appeal)," Sarwoko said.

Similar appeal requests by the other two militants, Imam Samudra and Ali Gufron, have not been decided yet.

The 2002 Bali bombings, which killed 202 people, were blamed on the Al-Qaeda-linked Jemaah Islamiyah extremist network.

None of the three condemned convicts has expressed remorse over the attacks.
