An Indonesian court is to deliver its verdict in the case of one of the alleged key figures in the 2002 Bali bombings. Umar Patek, 45, is facing six charges, several of which are terrorism-related. Prosecutors have asked for life imprisonment. He has admitted helping mix chemicals for the bombs, but said he was not involved in the attacks themselves.
The Bali bombings in 2002 killed more than 200 people.
The attacks targeted Paddy's Bar and the Sari Club in the resort of Kuta. Those killed were from 21 countries, including 88 Australians, 38 Indonesians and 28 Britons. Lawyers for Umar Patek have sought to play down his role, saying he was involved in the preparation of the blasts but not in their execution.
