Patek, a member of the Al Qaeda-linked Jemaah Islamiyah, was jailed for 20 years in 2012 after he was found guilty of mixing bombs that ripped through two Bali nightclubs, killing 202 people, including 88 Australians.
After his release on Wednesday, Patek is required to join a "mentoring program" until April 2030, according to the ministry statement. If any violation is discovered during that time, his parole will be revoked, the ministry added. In August, Indonesia's government said that Patek was eligible for parole after his sentence was reduced, a decision that sparked criticism from the victims' families.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese also criticized the announcement at the time, saying he planned to raise the issue with Indonesia. Patek, who was also convicted for his role in deadly church bombings in 2000, was granted a series of small reductions to his sentence as part of remissions regularly given to inmates to mark Indonesia's Aug. 17 independence day.
Very Philippine-like. They put to jail an old man for picking fruits, while letting a hit and run driver go scot free.
😳
Alam niyo mga natalo itong mga araneta roxas arroyo ayala lopez villar at marcoses sa legal battle nila sa court laban sa tinawag nilang maharlikans. They have no legitimate properties in this country if the law is truly enforced. They want to paint a bad image of the name. Haha
They will put to jail those who are doing sex outside of marriage but they freed the man who killed 200+ in a bombing attack 🙄
