An Indonesian court sentenced bombmaker Umar Patek to 20 years' jail on Thursday for his role in the 2002 Bali bombings, bringing to an end a 10-year probe into the nation's deadliest act of terror.
"We sentence Umar Patek to 20 years in jail," chief judge Encep Yuliardi told the court.
The court found Patek guilty of premeditated murder and bombmaking in connection with the suicide attacks on a Bali nightclub and bar that killed 202 people, mostly foreigners.
