Indonesia may execute Two Brits by firing squad

Leave a Comment

Indonesia is to perform a wave of executions after the end of Ramadan, meaning two British people on death row may face the firing squad sooner than expected.
The country’s government announced it plans to put 16 convicted prisoners to death after Eid holiday in early July, the first executions since the start of a hiatus in April last year.

Lindsay Sandiford , a grandmother from Teeside convicted of trafficking cocaine with a street value of £1.6 million, was given the death penalty in August 2013 and remains on death row.

A British man was also convicted for smuggling drugs into the country and has been in custody since September 2012.

It is not yet clear whether the pair will be among the group of prisoners executed next month.
