A Swedish man has been arrested on Bali for drug possession. The man was arrested in his villa on the tourist-packed island after Indonesian authorities received tips that he had received a "suspect" package from Thailand.

In the house, just over 200 grams of hash were found, and the man now risks 15 years in prison.

The Swede is one of six people who have been arrested for drug possession on Bali since July. Indonesia's penalty scale for drug-related crimes is very harsh, and four of those arrested risk the death penalty.
