‘It's Panadol': Australian man arrested in Bali for alleged cocaine possession
An Australian man in Bali has been arrested for alleged cocaine possession, with video footage of him claiming the substance is Panadol widely shared on social media. Lismore man Nelson Philip James was detained by Indonesian police on Thursday after he was allegedly found with cocaine during a traffic stop at Badung. The 32-year-old Australian man was travelling with a female companion when he was stopped by police for reportedly not wearing helmets while riding a motorcycle. A video of the Australian tourist originally published by local outlet Radar Bali has gone viral on social media, depicting the moment James was arrested at Badung. The clip shows police officers inspecting a small bag, which appears to contain a white powder substance. The NSW man can be seen telling police officers the substance was 'Panadol'.

Investigation underway after Australian man, 32, killed and another injured in a shooting in a villa in Bali
An Australian man has died while another has been injured in a shooting incident at a villa in Bali. Local police said the incident happened in a villa at Munggu in Bali's Badung Regency on Friday night local time. Both men are believed to have been shot in the incident, with the 32-year-old succumbing to his injuries at the scene while a 34-year-old Aussie man is receiving treatment in hospital. 'A shooting incident has happened. There are two victims, both Australian nationals,' Badung Police chief Arif Batubara said. 'We are now working on (an) investigation (to) find witnesses that may have seen the incident." No arrests have been made yet over the shooting. The incident comes after it emerged another Australian man had been arrested in Bali. The arrest was captured by the Radar Bali news service as it unfolded. He and his female passenger were reportedly stopped while riding a motorcyle as they were not wearing helmets. When he was inspected, police officers discovered a small bag containing what looked like a white substance. "'Ah, no, no, no, no,' the man said before pleading that it was just panadol. 'Try it, it's panadol. Panadol brother. Test it, it's panadol!' He later allegedly confessed the powder was cocaine. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade confirmed to it was aware an Australian had been detained in Bali. "We are in contact with local authorities and stand ready to provide consular assistance, to any Australian citizen, should they request it," a DFAT spokesperson said in a statement. It marks the third time an Australian has been detained in Bali in the last month. Australian man Puridas Robinson, a 40-year-old originally from Queensland was arrested at a Denpasar address on May 29 and has admitted to using cryptocurrency to purchase 120g of cannabis, according to the masthead. His arrest came after Indian man Harsh Nowlakha, 31, was allegedly caught by authorities attempting to smuggle cannabis into Bali via the island's international airport, The Daily Telegraph reported. Fellow Australian national Lamar Ahchee, was arrested in the Indonesian province in May for allegedly trying to smuggle cocaine into the country. Police have alleged Mr Ahchee aided in smuggling 1.8 kilograms of the drug into Bali. Mr Ahchee's lawyer has since claimed his client did not know the package he allegedly smuggled contained drugs.
