The BBC's Jim Fish: "This time the students were in mourning, carrying flowers and black banners"

In the latest challenge to the authorities, the students began a march on parliament, calling for justice for the seven people killed in two days of severe rioting.

There was no repeat of the earlier clashes with the security forces, who maintained a relatively low profile - though they denied the students access to the parliament building.

"Revolution until we die," the students chanted as they set off from the Atma Jaya university, scene of a tense stand-off with the security forces in recent days.

The demonstrators carried wreaths of flowers and banners reading "Wiranto you are scum" and "We are people, not targets for shooting".

The Indonesian Government had hoped that Friday's suspension of a controversial new security law would ease the tension on Jakarta's streets.

The street protests on Thursday and Friday had focused on the Prevention of Danger law, which gives the army sweeping new powers of arrest and control under any "emergency situations" agreed with the president.

"Habibie is responsible for the fall of so many victims from among the people and students," said a statement issued by 30 student and human rights groups.

"We are not satisfied with the suspension of the state security bill, therefore we demand that parliament revoke the bill and the 1959 law on emergency conditions," the statement added.

The latest fatalities were a nine-year-old boy and a 20-year-old engineering student, both shot by police on Friday evening, according to the Jakarta Post newspaper.

Clashes spread

An Indonesian cabinet spokesman said implementation of the security law was being put on hold "until a suitable time" because half the people did not understand it.

Earlier, General Wiranto insisted that the law - which would allow the military to control the media and ban demonstrations - was "in line with democracy and human rights".

Violence has also been reported in the North Sumatran city of Medan, where 2,000 students blocked roads and clashed with security forces.

At Bandung in West Java, 112 miles (180km) east of Jakarta, students occupied the government radio station and read statements denouncing the security law.
