BONUS: How they found the Bali Bombers

23 years ago today, the single largest loss of Australian life due to an act of terror hit Bali’s Kuta Beach. Two massive explosions tore through the bustling nightclub district, killing 202 people, including 88 Australians.

Australian Federal Police forensic chemist David Royds arrived on the scene just 48 hours later. Amid the devastation, he painstakingly pieced together what had happened and how, uncovering critical evidence that would ultimately lead to the bombers’ arrest.

In this bonus, we’re bringing you an episode from LiSTNR’s Crime Insiders Forensics podcast.

A warning, this episode contains descriptions of a mass casualty event. If you or anyone you know needs assistance, contact Lifeline on 13 11 14.
