Indonesia’s Widodo‘considering position’ on death row Australians

Australians Myuran Sukumaran and Andrew Chan, ringleaders of the so-called “Bali Nine” drug smuggling gang, were arrested for trying to traffic heroin out of Indonesia in 2005 and sentenced to death the following year.

Their appeals for presidential clemency, typically the final chance of avoiding the firing squad, were recently rejected by Widodo, and a court this week dismissed a bid to challenge that decision.
