A German national, Peter Hasslinger (45), has been sentenced by the Denpasar District Court to one year in prison for possession of 159.84 grams of marijuana.
Detik.com reports that the presiding judge, Sugeng Riyono, handed down the sentence while declaring his actions damaged the image of Bali when he was caught in Sanur in August of 2012 with the drugs stored at his residence in Bali.
The sentence handed down by the judge matched the one-year penalty demanded by prosecutors.
