A court in Indonesia has sentenced a leading member of The Islamist militant group that carried out the 2002 Bali bombings to 15 years in prison.
The Court in Jakarta found Zulkarnaen, 58, guilty of terrorism.
He had been on Indonesia's most-wanted list ever since the bombings and had evaded arrest Until December 2020.
The blasts at two bars packed with tourists on the Holiday Island killed 202 people from 21 nations in Indonesia's deadliest militant attack.
Among those killed at Paddy's Irish Bar and the nearby Sari Club were 88 Australians, 38 Indonesians and 28 Britons.
In 2008, three men were executed for their role in the bombings, and several others have either been jailed or killed by the security forces.
