An Indonesian man jailed for his role in the deadly 2002 Bali bombings that killed hundreds of people has had his sentence reduced, Australia's prime minister said on Friday, a move that could see him released on parole as early as this month. Umar Patek was sentenced to 20 years jail by an Indonesian court in 2012 after he was found guilty of mixing bombs that ripped through two Bali nightclubs a decade earlier, killing 202 people, including 88 Australians. A member of the Al Qaeda-linked militant group Jemaah Islamiyah, Patek was also jailed for his role in the bombings of several Jakarta churches on Christmas Eve in 2000 that killed at least 15 people.
