British national Julian Ponder has been jailed for six years for cocaine possession in Bali.
Prosecutors in Indonesia had asked for a seven-year prison term, and he could have faced a maximum sentence of life.
Lindsay Sandiford, the British grandmother sentenced to death for smuggling cocaine worth £1.5m onto the island, said Ponder was the man she was going to deliver the cocaine to.
He was originally charged with drug trafficking, but that was later reduced to possession.
