CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — Australian leaders on Monday continued to lobby Indonesia to spare the lives of two Australians on death row despite 10 prisoners being given formal notice that they could die within days.
Indonesia defiant as UN leads condemnation of looming executions. Indonesia gives 72-hour execution notice to drug traffickers Australia doing 'everything it can' for Bali death row pair AFP Indonesia informs death row convicts execution just days away Australians get 72-hour notice of execution in Indonesia: The Australians Myuran Sukumaran, 33, and Andrew Chan, 31, are among 10 drug traffickers facing execution by an Indonesian firing squad. Authorities had asked the two Australians, the four Nigerian men, a Filipino woman, and one man each from Brazil, France and Indonesia for their last wish as well as giving them 72-hour notice of their executions, a spokesman for the Indonesian attorney general, Tony Spontana, said Sunday. news.yahoo.com/australia-says-indonesia-gave-72-hours-notice-executions-233046667.html

After speaking to all of their mothers today I am assured of their innocence.
The Indonesian authorities should hold a mooning ceremony and tell them it was just a joke and not to do it again.

They should all plead insanity. Madness to traffic drugs in that part of the world being fully aware of the death penalty law.

I really feel for the Filipino and Brazilian, who really shouldn't be going to their death tonight, wat too much extenuating circumstances

Why should Indonesia be bullied by Western countries? Big signs in every immi cross point, departure/arrival cards/aircraft country advice 'Death Penalty for Drug Traffickers' means just that. Break the laws and face the consequences. 'So basically you have two men who were prepared to intimidate the rest of the group into strapping over 6kg of heroin to their bodies for shipment to Australia where it would be sold to junkies prepared to literally kill for another fix : two men who had no intention of working another 'real' job in their lives despite having steady employment at the time. Two men who seem to have turned their lives around only when there was no other option beyond mental illness - ala Corby - and two men who had been in the crosshairs of the Indonesian justice system from day one because of their role in the operation (both had done at least one prior mule run to Australia).'en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myuran_Sukumaran#Trafficking_conspiracyAs for them regretting what they did, they regret more being caught. Showing clemency would be the way to go if it caught the real ring leaders. Either you support the death penalty or you don't that's the moral issue here.

The Aussie guys knew full well what they were doing.
