An Indonesian man has been jailed for 30 months after writing "God doesn't exist" on his Facebook page

Alexander Aan, 30, has been imprisoned for sharing explicit material about the Islamic Prophet Mohammed online. He started an atheist group on Facebook on which he shared comic strips of the prophet having sex with his servant, a court in western Sumatra has heard. He was found guilty of "deliberately spreading information inciting religious hatred and animosity", presiding judge Eka Prasetya Budi Dharma told the Muaro Sijunjung district court in western Sumatra. Aan also uploaded three articles on his Facebook account, including one describing the Muslim prophet being attracted to his daughter-in-law. Aan was beaten by an angry mob and arrested by police in his hometown of Pulau Punjung in western Sumatra in January 2012 after posting the material online and declaring himself an atheist. The court had earlier indicted Aan with two other charges - persuading others to embrace atheism and blasphemy. Prosecutors had sought a three-and-a-half-year jail term for him. But the court convicted him of the most serious charge and dropped the other two. Indonesia is the world's largest Muslim-majority nation.
