Protests in Indonesia over Miss World pageant

The decision to host the finals of the 2013 Miss World beauty pageant in Indonesia - the world's most populous Islamic country - has sparked anger among a number of religious groups.

With the event due to get underway at the weekend, conservative Muslim groups took to the streets of Jakarta to protest - but the pageant's organisers say Miss World will carry on as planned.
