They were posted by Tyrone Hermitt, who closed his account with 200,000-plus followers after receiving a backlash.
He posted an apology ‘to all the Bali locals’ on his Instagram page saying: “This was not my party.
“I apologise for attending. I did not realise there was going to be as many people at the party and it looked more busy than it was.
“I respect Bali and will be donating to some charities to help locals who are losing jobs and need help.”
Indonesia has not formally entered a lockdown state, but has urged its residents to stay inside and avoid mass gatherings.
