A lawyer for the alleged Bali bombing mastermind Umar Patek denied that his client had been involved in the Bali bombing planning, saying that Patek was there only to provide assistance.
“He didn’t plan the [Bali] attacks. He merely helped out,” his lawyer, Ashludin Hatjani, said on Monday, as quoted by Antara news agency.
