THE violent details of an Australian businessman's murder in his own Bali villa have been aired in the trial of his wife, who is accused of ordering the hit.

Noor Ellis faces charges of premeditated murder over the death of her husband of 25 years, Robert Ellis, whose body was found in a rice field last October.

Also known as Julaikah Noor Aini, Ellis could face the death penalty.

In her defence she claims she only asked her maid's boyfriend to take care of her problems with her husband, not kill him.

But the trial has already heard from the maid and a second maid, that the order was given to kill Mr Ellis.

On Wednesday, the man who cut Mr Ellis' throat, 23-year-old Urbanus Yohanes Ghoghi, told the court in graphic detail of the roles he and four other men played in the killing.

Ellis had given one of the men, Martin, a towel and pillow, and the men first tried to suffocate him, Urbanus said.

When their victim fought back, Martin handed him the kitchen knife he used to slash his throat.

Afterwards, Ellis handed Martin the plastic to wrap her husband's body in, Urbanus' co-accused, Yohanes Sairokudu, said.

"That night, Mrs Noor gave Rp 50 million ($5000) to Martin. It was then split, Rp 10 million each," he said.

"Martin also said to us that tomorrow, there will be more."

Yohanes was also asked about a meeting Ellis called prior to the murder, where other witnesses say she gave the order to kill her husband.

"Mrs Noor said that when killing Mr Bob, don't use a sharp weapon," he said.

"Close his nose and mouth with a pillow only. To be neat, basically."

Ellis later took the stand as a witness in the trials of the two men, who are also charged with premeditated murder.

Asked by Judge Beslin Sihombing where Mr Ellis was now, she replied: "In heaven".

Asked who gave the order to have him murdered she said: "Probably me".

The judge replied: "Probably? Or did you order them?"

She replied: "Because of the order from me. I asked Martin's help to teach a lesson".

Judge Hadi Masruri asked Ellis why she gave the order.

"For a long time he hadn't given me sufficient (money), (he) even took the money for my kids' schooling," she replied.

"Because his attitude didn't change, I couldn't stand it anymore. Once I asked for divorce but he didn't want to. He said we should just go on, in our own way."

The trial continues next week with Ellis' defence.
