    An extremist Islamic cleric in Indonesia has blamed the recent Java landslides and floods on its victims, as the death toll passes 130.

    Cleric and former Jemaah Islamiya (JI) leader Abu Bakar Bashir toured a village in the badly affected Karanganyar district of Central Java, where he blamed the disaster on the "immoral acts" of its victims.

    Meanwhile, as the number of dead and missing passes 100, concern is turning to the people who have been displaced by floods and landslides - an estimated 28,000 in Central Java according to government figures and 45,000 in East Java according to the Red Cross.

    Fifty lives are feared lost in a single incident in East Java when a busy bridge was washed away by a swollen river
