A court in Indonesia has found another person guilty of involvement in last October's Bali bombings in which 202 people were killed.

Ali Imron, 33, was convicted of taking part in the planning of the bombings and has been sentenced to life in prison.

It is understood prosecutors asked that he be sentenced to 20 years in jail rather than be given the death penalty.

Imron is the only Bali bombing accused who has publicly expressed remorse.

Two other people have been convicted and sentenced to death for their part in the bombings.
