Indonesia has some of the world’s toughest drug laws, but has moved to release more than half a dozen high-profile detainees in the last year
Two British drug convicts including death row prisoner Lindsay Sandiford were repatriated from Indonesia on Friday, as part of a deal to return them on humanitarian grounds.
Indonesia has some of the world’s toughest drug laws, but has moved to release more than half a dozen high-profile detainees in the last year.
Sandiford, 69, was sentenced to death on the island of Bali in 2013 after she was convicted of trafficking drugs.
She was repatriated along with Shahab Shahabadi, 36, who was serving a life sentence for drug offences after his arrest in 2014.
