BANDUNG, Indonesia (AP) - More than 70 rebels from Indonesia's tsunami-ravaged Aceh province were freed from prison Wednesday, the first in a wave of releases called for in a peace deal ending a decades-long separatist war.
The men, including four senior rebels, were to travel to Aceh later Wednesday, officials said.
More than 1,300 other prisoners, both those held in Aceh and at prisons elswhere in Indonesia, were also scheduled to be released Wednesday.
