Australia’s newly elected Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has said Indonesia’s decision to further reduce the prison sentence of a man jailed for his role in the 2002 Bali bombings, which could free him within days if he is granted parole, is upsetting.
Umar Patek was handed a 20-year jail sentence by an Indonesian court in 2012 after he was found guilty in connection with the blasts that ripped through two Bali nightclubs, killing more than 200 people from at least 20 different countries, and leaving hundreds injured.
