DENPASAR, Indonesia (AFP): An Indonesian court on Thursday sentenced an Argentine woman and four British nationals to prison in two cases, after they were found guilty of smuggling cocaine into the popular resort island of Bali.

Indonesia has some of the world's toughest anti-drug laws, including the death penalty for traffickers, but has maintained a moratorium on executions for several years.
