Indonesian Court Adjourns Soeharto Trial to Sept. 14

An Indonesian court adjourned the landmark corruption trial of former President Soeharto on Thursday for two weeks to give the one-time autocrat's doctors time to prepare submissions on his ailing health.

Soeharto's lawyers said the 79-year-old former general had failed to appear at the start of the trial because he was too ill.

The case will resume on Sept. 14.
