Eight convicted drug smugglers have been executed by firing squad in Indonesia. The executions took place in Besi prison on the island of Nusakambangan early on Wednesday morning local time. Among those executed were Australians Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran. Earlier, the men's families were allowed to see them for the last time. Australia had appealed to Indonesia to delay the executions, citing alleged flaws in how their case was prosecuted. Those put to death also include Nigerian nationals, a Brazilian and an Indonesian. Filipina woman Mary Jane Fiesta Veloso was also due to be executed, but this was postponed at the last minute after a request by the Philippine president, a spokesman from the attorney general's office told the BBC. The request came after someone suspected of framing Veloso to carry heroin into Indonesia surrendered to police in the Philippines, the spokesman went on. 'A miracle' Indonesia would give Veloso the chance to testify as a witness in the trial in the Philippines, the spokesman said. Her mother described the last minute reprieve as a "miracle". "We are so happy, I can't believe it. I can't believe my child will live," Celia Veloso told Philippine radio station DZMM. A Frenchman also convicted of drug offences, Serge Areski Atlaoui, has also been sentenced to death but has an appeal outstanding. Earlier, the eight prisoners were allowed to spend their final moments with their families. Relatives of Chan and Sukumaran were visibly distressed and Sukumaran's sister collapsed and had to be carried to the prison. Indonesia has some of the toughest drug laws in the world and ended a four- year moratorium on executions in 2013. It says it takes a hard line because of the country's own drugs problem - 33 Indonesians die every day as a result of drugs, according to Indonesia's National Narcotics Agency. |

soe:get ur facts right. The nigerian were guilty but this filipino is different. |
Re: Filipino Lady In Indonesia Gets 12th Hour Miracle!!!!!!!!!!god Is Great by Nobody: 8:49pm On Apr 28, 2015 |
onatisi:yes but because our law is softer...we could have told the Indonesian govt to transfer them to be punished here. It is an acceptable international protocol worldwide... Haba |
Re: Filipino Lady In Indonesia Gets 12th Hour Miracle!!!!!!!!!!god Is Great by onatisi(m): 8:54pm On Apr 28, 2015 |
soe:so if it was that simple ,why didn't brazil or australia demand that their pl who were killed today be extradited? It isn't every offence that u can just extradite someone. If an indonesian man kills someone in nigeria ,he won't be sent to indonesia , he will have to face our laws here . |

The government of other nationals made appeals and some are still appealing, but no single word from our government on behalf of her nationals involved |

nickxtra:you are right to some extent but dont you think such step will encourage other people to join them? |
Re: Filipino Lady In Indonesia Gets 12th Hour Miracle!!!!!!!!!!god Is Great by onatisi(m): 9:32pm On Apr 28, 2015 |
Redoil:australia made appeals for clemency and stay of action because the 2 australians still have pending cases, france made an appeal because her citizen too has a pending case,Philippines made strong spirited appeals because there was enough evidences to show that mary velso was set up, on what grounds do u want the nigerian government to make appeals when even one of the nigerians killed was even caught organising drug businesses from inside the prison!!!!! Brazil too made appeals on the fact that the brazillian caught has mental disorders . |
Re: Filipino Lady In Indonesia Gets 12th Hour Miracle!!!!!!!!!!god Is Great by nickxtra(m): 9:43pm On Apr 28, 2015 |
Redoil:Yea, it will, but the death sentences can atleast be reduced to lesser punishment. Government making appeals to other countries in cases like this no matter the crime means that the government cares and values its citizenry. The countries making appeals on behalf of their nationals are no fools. They know what they are doing. Also, there has always been executions, yet more people continue to involve in the crimes. Who wants to indulge in crime will always do,whether the government intervenes or not. |
