Puridas Robinson was pictured after police allegedly found a stash of marijuana at his Denpasar villa. If convicted of drug possession Mr Robinson, from Queensland, could face up to 12 years in jail. The teary 40-year-old covered his face as he was carted into a press conference alongside 20 other tourists accused of trafficking drugs into Indonesia. His arrest comes a few weeks after fellow Australian Lamar Ahchee was arrested for allegedly trying to smuggle $1 million of cocaine into Bali. Police allege 1.8kg of cocaine was concealed inside two Gold Lindt chocolate boxes, with each box containing 54 individually wrapped packets of the drug. Mr Ahchee, who has been living in Bali since 2017, could face the death sentence if convicted. Puridas Robinson. Credit: Firdia Lisnawati / AP
