Bali 3: Prison terms extended for Men sentenced over murder of Melbourne father
Zivan Radmanovic died in a late-night ambush carried out in a Canggu villa in front of his wife.
Three Australians sentenced in Bali last month over the shooting murder of a Melbourne father have had their prison terms extended by an appeal judge.
The Indonesian High Court handed an extra five years to Sydney man Darcy Francesco Jenson for his role in planning the murder, taking his sentence from 12 years to 17.
While the two Australian gunmen, Paea-I-Middlemore Tupou and Mevlut Coskun, were each handed an extra two years behind bars, taking their sentences from 16-years to 18.

The family is yet to respond to the latest update.
Radmanovic died in the late-night ambush shooting carried out in a villa near Canggu in June 2025 in front of his wife Jazmyn Gourdeas.
The gunmen, who fled but were caught several days later, admitted at trial they got the wrong person and the real target had been the victim’s friend Sanar Ghanim.
Instructions and promise of payment had come from an unnamed man in Australia to threaten Ghanim over an alleged debt.
Ghanim, who has previously been linked to Melbourne’s underworld, was shot and bashed in the villa ambush but survived.
