A man who hid several Bali bombing suspects while they were on the run has been sentenced to seven years in jail by an Indonesian court.
Mohamad Yunus, 39, was found “legally and convincingly guilty of finding places for and hiding the terrorists,” Judge I Wayan Sugawa told the Denpasar district court.
