<p>Indonesia&#8217;s president said violent, hard-line groups should be disbanded after mobs set churches on fire and killed three members of a minority Islamic sect.</p>
<p>The attacks raised concerns about escalating religious intolerance in the secular nation that has more than 220 million Muslims, most of whom are moderate.</p>
<p>President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono &#8211; who relies heavily on Islamic parties in parliament and rarely criticises hard-liners &#8211; did not identify any group by name.</p>
<p>But he said such violence &#8220;was against the law&#8221; and groups involved &#8220;should be disbanded&#8221;.</p>
<p>On Sunday, 1,500 hard-liners attacked Ahmadiyah sect members with sticks and machetes, killing three men.</p>
<p>On Tuesday, a mob set two churches ablaze to protest against a Christian&#8217;s blasphemy sentence as too lenient.</p>
