Prosecutors in the case against an alleged would-be female suicide bomber in Jakarta have demanded she be jailed for 10 years.
Dian Yulia Novi, 28, is accused of plotting to blow herself up at the Presidential Palace in Jakarta in December last year.
It is the first time a woman is being prosecuted for alleged suicide bombing plans in Indonesia.
A panel of three judges at the East Jakarta District Court have been hearing charges against her, including evil conspiracy, and attempted terrorism.
The indictment tended in the court showed the Indonesian woman was living in Taiwan when she learned about Jihad and the Islamic State (IS) group on social media.
She was motivated to become a suicide bomber after she was married in October last year.
In early December 2016, she rented a room in a house in Jakarta along with three other defendants and bought a pressure cooker online, the indictment showed.
Police later found and detonated the explosives in the same room.
The indictment said she had received instructions from the Indonesian IS leader in Syria, Bahrum Naim, to attack palace guards early in the morning on December 11 2016.
She was arrested the day before the planned attack.
In interviews with the local Indonesian press, Dian, who is due to give birth within weeks, said her motivation was to win the blessing of Allah.
There are also six other defendants in the case.
Prosecutors recommended Dian's husband be jailed for 15 years for leading the terrorist cell.
A few days after the woman's arrest, a second woman Ika Puspitasari was also arrested for allegedly plotting a suicide bombing in Bali on New Year's Eve.
