Bali frees teen on drug charge

A 14-YEAR-OLD Australian boy has been released after serving two months in an Indonesian detention centre for buying drugs while on holiday with his family on the resort island of Bali.

The teenager wore a mask to hide his face from photographers as he walked out of the immigration detention centre with his parents.

The boy, who cannot be named because of his age, has promised to enter a drug rehabilitation programme after returning home to Morrisset Park, just north of Sydney.
