considering indonesia also went against their constitution, says a fair bit about their government.

*once a prisoner has spent 10 years in prison and has shown genuine signs of rehabilitation they can NOT execute.

Anyone from Australia, correct.

Brazillians are reacting the same as Australians over the death of Rodrigo Gularte who's story could be even more tragic than most suffering from mental illnesses and according to some not even knowing what was going on.

The front page of the Tiser "blood on his hands"?? I do not support the death penalty but as Widodo made comment "our rule of law"

Last year Indonesia executed 11 with the USA executed 250 does this mean the US president has blood on his hands.
Now please don't tell me koshi and his media mad mates will have live coverage of the arrival of the coffins ! live coverage of the funerals!!

Oh, I didn't realise the AFP forced them to strap drugs to their bodies.


Exactly, how dare the AFP catch some criminals


They didn't catch them.
The Indo cops did...

The AFP knew the smuggling operation was on, they had the opportunity to stop the operation on Australian soil, they then decided to let things unfold and alert the Indonesian authorities of the operation.....fully aware of what could happen to the people if caught and convicted.

In essence, the AFP are employed to act in the best interest of all Australians, to protect Australians. Did they act in the best interests of these people?

Yes, and it bothers me that nobody has tackled the real issues yet.

For instance, reports claim that the cuisine du jour for the last meal was KFC.

I presume that they could each indulge in an entire bucketful, since their arteries would not have time to clog before the lead poisoning took hold. Nevertheless one question remains: did they go with original recipe, or did the gravity of the situation command hot & spicy?

I know one thing, I'd be guessing that the "C" in KFC doesn't stand for chicken.. and should probably be called KFD

What sentence would they have rec'd in Australia? They would be back on the streets now wouldn't they? So im thinking they did act in the best interests of Australia as a whole.

I would have thought that if the AFP are aware of a criminal act occurring in another country they have a responsibility to inform that country, we would want the same in reverse.

You're right, they probably would have served out a 10 year sentence, one which could be considered appropriate. And given that our prisons are bastions of rehabilitation, they'd have the opportunity to become positively contributing citizens.

That's generally the model of civilised nations.

No Australian has ever been executes in Thailand, the person who grants pardons there isn't as politically motivated as the Indonesian President.
