The scent of freshly cut timber mixed with the stench of powerful disinfectants and the smell of rotting corpses today as empty coffins were piled up behind a hospital morgue in Bali.

Inside, a small army of volunteers – tattooed backpackers in flip-flops, Balinese college students and others – were trying to sort out the remains of nearly 200 people killed in Saturday’s massive car bombing.
