Playboy Indonesia's editor will go to prison

Erwin Arnada will be in jail soon:

The former editor-in-chief of Playboy Indonesia is ready to begin his two-year jail sentence for publishing pictures of scantily clothed women, his lawyer said Thursday.

The Supreme Court said in August that it had found Erwin Arnada guilty of violating the predominantly Muslim nation's indecency laws, overruling an earlier aquittal. He was sentenced to two years behind bars.

Though Arnada has denied wrongdoing, he will comply with the verdict while launching a final appeal, said his lawyer, Ina Rahman. The former editor planned to turn himself in to the Jakarta Penitentiary Center later Thursday.
