Two British drug convicts, including a grandmother on death row, left a Bail jail on Thursday, an Indonesian ministry official revealed, as part of a deal to send them home.
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, including a Filipina mother on death row.
Lindsay Sandiford, 69, was sentenced to death on the tourist island of Bali in 2013 after she was convicted of trafficking drugs.
She will be repatriated along with Shahab Shahabadi, 36, who was serving a life sentence for drug offences after his arrest in 2014.
The two convicts left prison and were transferred to the airport, law and human rights ministry official.
