THE country is set to begin releasing hundreds of inmates from its notoriously overcrowded prisons after parliament approved the first stage of President Prabowo Subianto’s (pic) wide-ranging clemency plan.
The first group of 1,116 will begin leaving prisons next week and includes prominent rivals of previous president Joko Widodo who were jailed during his term, as well as Papuan independence activists.
