SURABAYA, Indonesia (Reuters) -An Indonesian convicted in the deadly 2002 Bali nightclub bombings has launched his own coffee business after being released on parole, and has said he will use some of the earnings to help survivors of the attacks. Umar Patek, a member of the al Qaeda-linked Jemaah Islamiyah group, was jailed for 20 years in 2012 after he was found guilty of making bombs that ripped through two Bali nightclubs, killing 202 people, including 88 Australians and 38 Indonesians.

Umar Patek, an Indonesian militant convicted for his role in the 2002 Bali bombings that killed 202 people, has begun a deradicalization program in a Jakarta prison, as reported on April 20, 2022. Patek, who was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2012, is participating in the program to help him reintegrate into society upon his release in 2029. The deradicalization initiative, which includes religious re-education and vocational training, aims to prevent former extremists from returning to violence. Patek's involvement in the program is seen as a test case for Indonesia's efforts to rehabilitate terrorists and reduce the risk of recidivism among convicted militants.
