A South African man convicted of drug smuggling in Indonesia has been sentenced to life in prison.

Brett Savage was arrested at the island of Bali after he tried to smuggle three-kilograms of tik into the country last year.

According to Judge Komang Wijaya Adhi, who handed down the sentence today, Savage is part of an international smuggling syndicate.

Savage’s family still lives in Pietermaritzburg.
