Jakarta , Indonesia ( CNN ) -- Indonesia 's latest attempt to charge a fiery Islamic cleric on terrorism charges was swiftly adjourned moments after it started in a south Jakarta court Thursday . Abu Bakar Ba'asyir could face the death penalty under fresh charges , which include planning and/or inciting a terrorist act and involvement in a paramilitary training camp discovered last February in Aceh province . However , proceedings were postponed to Monday after his lawyer argued that they were not given enough time to respond to the court summons . The 72-year-old waved and smiled to hundreds of his supporters , who chanted `` God is great . '' Ba'asyir was first detained in August for suspected links to a militant training camp raided by authorities in Aceh in early 2010 . Police said the suspect and his organization , the Jamaat Tawhid Anshoru or JAT , were involved in setting up the camp . The militants were preparing to launch attacks similar to the one in Mumbai 2008 , and assassination attempts on Indonesian government officials , authorities have said . But the lawyers have called the case weak and a fabrication . This was going to be his third trial . In the first two , prosecutors tried to link the elderly cleric to the 2002 bombings in Bali and the 2003 hotel bomb attack in Jakarta . The courts found him guilty of minor charges , and sentenced him to 25 months . He was released in June 2006 . `` This trial is very significant , because if the Indonesian government failed to provide a strong unshakable court evidence , they will use this as a weapon , an ammunition to gain more recruits , '' said Noor Huda , founder of Jakarta 's Institute of International Peace Building , which aims to reform radical inmates . `` Ba'asyir is clearly a symbol , he gains certain level of celebrity among jihadist , he 's very strong , he has a strong charisma to build networks . '' Ba'asyir is known for his fiery rhetoric . He was accused of being the spiritual leader of Indonesia 's homegrown terror network , Jemaah Islamiyah , which inspired many of those involved in the bombings . He has denied all the allegations and often blamed a U.S.-led conspiracy to put him behind bars .
