AN AUSTRALIAN man caught last year in Bali with a small amount of the party drug ice has been sentenced to six months in jail.
However, Graeme Michael Pollock is likely to be released within the next three weeks after a judge in Bali’s Denpasar District Court yesterday ruled the sentence would take into account time already served.
It’s expected he will be released on March 16 or 17, after which he will be deported to Australia.
The Darwin man was arrested on September 17 last year at the hotel where he was staying at Kuta Beach with a package containing 0.64g of methamphetamine, commonly known in Indonesia as shabu shabu.
He had been facing the possibility of up to 12 years’ in jail for possession, but authorities instead only demanded a conviction for the use of illegal drugs.
The 31-year-old is being held at Bali’s notorious Kerobokan jail, which was the scene of riots last week that saw inmates take control of the prison on two consecutive nights.
Pollock was one of 12 Australians who refused to leave the jail despite authorities wanting to evacuate all foreigners amid fears they could be targeted by other prisoners involved in the unrest.
The others included the Bali Nine, the Gold Coast’s Schapelle Corby and Sydney man Michael Sacatides, all of whom have been jailed for drug-related offences.
The more lenient charge is usually reserved for people who can prove a long-standing drug addiction.
Pollock admitted to police after his arrest to having used methamphetamine, known in Australia as ice, for about eight years.
