An Indonesian militant was convicted yesterday of helping to build the car bomb used in the deadly 2002 Bali nightclub attacks and sentenced to 20 years in prison. Umar Patek, a leading member of the al-Qa'ida-linked network Jemaah Islamiyah was found guilty of violating Indonesia's anti-terror law for his role in the 12 October 2002 attacks that killed 202 people. Three men have already been executed for their roles in the attack.
